There is some problem between the 20060606 snapshot and the drives
D:, E: ...

I have the cygwin prefix mounted to '/' (since long time) so that I can
use 'ls -lrt /e' etc..

The drive E: is a DVD burner.

When I insert a disc containing two directory, Cernlib and ROOT, which I
backed-up 20060126, the following examples happen with that snapshot:

$ ls -lrt /e    
ls: reading directory /e: Invalid argument
total 0

------------------------------------------------------

$ ls -lrt /e/*
ls: /e/*: No such file or directory

------------------------------------------------------

$ ls -lrt /e/Cer<TAB>

i.e. the TAB completion does not work
------------------------------------------------------

$ ls -lrt /e/Cernlib
ls: reading directory /e/Cernlib: Invalid argument
total 0

------------------------------------------------------

$ ls -lrt /e/ROOT   
ls: reading directory /e/ROOT: Invalid argument
total 0

------------------------------------------------------
Administrator AT graziosi-irci53 /tmp
$ cd /e   

Administrator AT graziosi-irci53 /e
$ ls -lrt
ls: reading directory .: Invalid argument
total 0
                      ^
                    note this!

Reinstalling Cygwin 1.5.19-4 all works fine:



------------------------------------------------------
$ ls -lrt /e
total 0

dr-xr-xr-x 10 Administrator Administrators 0 Feb  9 12:56 Cernlib

$ ls -lrt /e/Cer<TAB>  ===> $ ls -lrt /e/Cernlib/

______________________________________________________

......... etc. ......

$ cd /e

Administrator AT graziosi-irci53 /e
$ ls -lrt

Cheers,

   Angelo.
