The system corruption errors from the rm -rf command is due to the way that inode is mimmicked. I am giving you a list of URL's to check out. Sergey Okhapkin has a patched cygwin.dll and libcygwin.a to take care of B18 errors. Most of this will be incorporated in B19. MAKE CERTAIN THAT YOU MOUNT YOU DIRECTORIES AS text=binary.
