Following the "How can I access other drives?" topic in the faq, I do this: bash-2.03$ mkdir /c bash-2.03$ mount c:/ /c bash-2.03$ ls /c bash-2.03$ Notice my ls command didn't show me what is in c:\ and I don't know why! However, if I do the faq's "special means of accessing other drive letters" syntax, I get this, which is what I feel I should have gotten with `ls /c' above: bash-2.03$ ls //c/ AUTOEXEC.BAT CONFIG.SYS Logo_.sys RECYCLED ffastun.ffo BOOTLOG.PRV DBLSPACE.INI MAB SCANDISK.LOG ffastun0.ffx BOOTLOG.TXT DELL MSDOS.SYS Utilitys logo.sys Batch Dos Mew71 WINDOWS winzip.log CDROM IO.SYS PREALG ffastun.ffa COMMAND.COM Junk Program Files ffastun.ffl bash-2.03$ Here's my mount table before I do the mount: Device Directory Type Flags \\.\tape1: /dev/st1 native text!=binary \\.\tape0: /dev/st0 native text!=binary \\.\b: /dev/fd1 native text!=binary \\.\a: /dev/fd0 native text!=binary C: / native text!=binary Here's my mount table after I do the mount: Device Directory Type Flags \\.\tape1: /dev/st1 native text!=binary \\.\tape0: /dev/st0 native text!=binary \\.\b: /dev/fd1 native text!=binary \\.\a: /dev/fd0 native text!=binary c: /c native text!=binary C: / native text!=binary Can anyone shed some light on why this isn't working for me?
