I am having trouble mounting a linking to a directory. The mounted file 
doesn't go to "/" as I specified in the mount command instead it goes to  
/cygdrive/c/Documents\ and\ Settings/erica. What am I doing wrong? This is 
what I do:

$ mount -tf "c:\PalmDev" /PalmDev

$ ln -s "C:\Palm OS 5 SDK (68K) R3\Palm OS Support" /PalmDev/sdk5r3
ln: creating symbolic link `/PalmDev/sdk5r3' to `C:\\Palm OS 5 SDK (68K) 
R3\\Palm OS Support': No such file or directory

$ ls /
Packages  cygwin.bat   cygwin.ico  lib   tmp  var
bin       cygwin.bat~  etc         sbin  usr
** No /PalmDev

$ ls /PalmDev
ls: /PalmDev: No such file or directory

$ ls ../Documents\ and\ Settings/erica
