Hello all,

Cygwin by default maps all the local hard drives (C:, D:) to

c: on /cygdrive/c type user (binmode,noumount)
d: on /cygdrive/d type user (binmode,noumount)

Is it possible for us to change the mount name to something other than
"cygdrive" say "cyd". Example

c: on /cyd/c type user (binmode,noumount)
d: on /cyd/d type user (binmode,noumount)

Thanks a lot and have a good day.....

Best regards,
Ganesh
