Well, I installed only the DLL first. Since it didn't work, and I
don't understand all the interrelations that well (apparently there
are none, accroding to your comment:), I thought I I might install the
complete -inst tar-ball.

Christopher> Are you *really* getting a list of all of your drives
Christopher> under /cygdrive/c?  Or is this a typo?

No typo, I am getting the same output whether I do 'ls -l /cygdrive'
or 'ls -l /cygdrive/c/' [1] -- as shown above.

Christopher> It seems to me that this should be:
Christopher> bash$ ll /cygdrive

Yeah, but it isn't.

Christopher> Not surprising, unless you have a 'c' directory on your

Right. Then, there is a 'c' dir in /cygdrive/c/ according to ls
(v.s.), but of course it isn't there in real...


Ok, I downloaded the little c program David Rothenberger posted
earlier today and compiled it to pathcheck.exe. That seems to work
just fine:

,----[mount -p]

No typo, I asked ls for /cygdrive/o, not /cygdrive :(


'Different' approach, same results:

,----[cygpath.exe -w /cygdrive/o]
| o:\
`----

,----[ls -l o:\\]

| dr-xr-xr-x   11 Everyone Everyone        0 Dec 31  1969 z/
`----

I crosschecked in a 'cmd'-line (as opposed to bash), same results.

Greetings,
Jochen
