Friends,

I find /cygdrive/ just unbearable and I always change it to / after an
install.  The issue with this is that post install activities will
create symlinks using /cygdrive moniker so I must go change those if I
find them.  Would it be possible for setup to ask for the value and
setup the /etc/fstab with the value?  Do others find this bit of annoying?
