"man mount" you can see the help the mount. you can always find some answers if you try "man your-command". The first path is Windows path and second is the POSIX path. so using: mount -u -o managed "e:\test\dir1" /tmp/dir1 if you want to umount, try "umount -u /tmp/dir1" but notice if you umount a managed dir which contains the files, you must remount it with "-f" option! > > Actually, i just need to compile linux kernel on x86 arch.
