From: earnie_boyd AT yahoo DOT com (Earnie Boyd) Subject: BUG: umount / && mount d:/ / doesn't work. 28 Aug 1998 22:40:34 -0700 Message-ID: <19980828135641.17263.rocketmail.cygnus.gnu-win32@send1c.yahoomail.com> Reply-To: earnie_boyd AT yahoo DOT com Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii To: gw32 I've just found that in order to change the root directory to something other than c:\ that I must use regedt32 and modify the key value. I found this bug when trying to explain the process to someone else. I modified my mounted root directory with `umount / && mount d:/ /' and found that it did the umount and immediately pointed the / to c: so that when it executed the mount command mount complained about a `busy device'. I tried this sequence also under MSDOS with nothing else running and got the same results. This used to work in b18, so if I were looking for the problem (which I won't be) I would look at the code that changed for the addition of the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE registry entry. == - \\||// ---o0O0--Earnie--0O0o---- --earnie_boyd AT yahoo DOT com-- ------ooo0O--O0ooo------- _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?
