FWIW (once again) I currently have a dual boot Win98SE/Win2000 machine using the very same installation of cygwin for *BOTH* OS'es... -> using the mount command similarily to what was mentioned earlier in this thread. (Hmm... does that scary thing apply here? ;-) Things SEEM to be functioning properly. Might be that problems arise if I use setup.exe from W2K one time, then from W98SE next time... Any thoughts? ( i.e. registry entries? timestamp in [cf]:\cygwin\etc\timestamp ? C: = W98SE, F: = W2K ) NOTE HERE: My actual use of cygwin so far has been very limited. Which might be why I have not found any problems with the above yet. (I'm building up steam to get going ;) /Hannu E K Nevalainen, 59~14'N, 17~12'E ~ <=> degree -- --END OF MESSAGE-- -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
