For some reason, something happened to my root dir on C: and im not sure how it happened exacty. When i go to /cygdrive/c/ and attempt an 'ls' ( or similar ) here's what I get.... $ ls ls: reading directory .: No such file or directory however I can still access the directories in that directory if i specifically go into each directory. I'm thinking this is a permission problem on c: and i've changed it a few times with no success. Any ideas? thanks Ryan -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
