It's interesting that all three replies to this message mentioned the
registry... While Vince should only have mentioned that it's *currently*
held in the registry, Pavel actually recommended exporting it. As I've
been mildly chided for this before, here's an equivalent registry-free
solution:
On the source machine:
$ mount -m > restore_mounts.sh
On the target:
$ ./restore_mounts.sh
(after the appropriate file transfer, of course).
I should mention that Fergus's solution with setup.exe should also work.

Hi!
I have installed cygwin in c:\cygwin, then i copyied this directory on
another computer and when I run cygwin.bat in the new copy, it writes
that it can't find "/tmp". I think it doesn't know, where the
cygwin root is. Where or how do I set the path of cygwin root up? And
please, don't write me that it depends on my instalation, it must be
common for all instalations.
Thank you.
David
