I failed to reproduce your problem. However, maybe you can test out a
couple of things:
You are doing the move accross volumes (from /tmp which you have
mounted from d:\programme\cygwin\ to /cygdrive/x/test , which is
x:\test\ ). Do you still see the problem if you do the move within the
same volume? (Ie, make a directory /cygdrive/x/tmp/ and use it instead
of /tmp/ ). This would be a good idea even if it doesn't fix this
problem, since it should also be faster, because mv within the same
volume is just a rename, whereas mv between volumes has to do a copy
then delete.
Do you still see the problem if you use a mount instead of
/cygdrive/x/ (ie something like
$ mount -s -b "x:/test" "/xtest"
and then use /xtest in place of /cygdrive/x in all your scripts)? (I
wouldn't expect this to make a difference, but you never know).
Are you running anything that wants to examine every file on your
system (realtime virus scanner, personal firewall, content indexer,
google desktop search, etc)? Try uninstalling (not just disabling) all
such software, as it has been known to cause similar problems in the
past.
cygcheck indicated that both d: and x: are local ntfs hard disks. Is
this correct?
