Hello all,

learn your Windows:

C:\>mkdir cygwin
C:\>cd cygwin
C:\cygwin>touch testsubst
C:\cygwin>cd ..
C:\>dir cygwin /B
testsubst
C:\>subst X: C:\cygwin
C:\>dir X: /B
testsubst
C:\>

Install Cygwin into X:\ now and you're done.  Or just use an entire
separate partition (hardisks are cheap).

Gerrit
