How do we "mount in text mode"? BTW attacking this has shown up a couple of Cygwin glitches. bash won't run a MSDOS .com file, even though it is in the path. Piping doesn't work to DOS utilities. Also stdin redirection to DOS utilities doesn't work - maybe the same bug. These utilities detect that stdin is NOT the console, and act accordingly. -- Chuck F (cbfalconer AT yahoo DOT com) (cbfalconer AT worldnet DOT att DOT net) Available for consulting/temporary embedded and systems.
