Thanks Corinna,
I just discovered the root cause and it is not related to the snapshot but =
to
/etc/fstab content.

I am using cygwin on an external hard disk and to avoid every time to
redefine the mount point I was using a fstab like this:

/cygwin2 / some_fs binary 0 0
/cygwin2/bin /usr/bin some_fs binary 0 0

instead of

e:/cygwin2 / some_fs binary 0 0
e:/cygwin2/bin /usr/bin some_fs binary 0 0

in the first case cygwin works, without problem whatever is the disk letter,
but cygcheck doesn't succeed to locate the mount points

$ cycheck mount
bash: cycheck: command not found

$ which mount
/usr/bin/mount

$ cygcheck  /usr/bin/mount
\cygwin2\bin\mount.exe
  E:\cygwin2\bin\cygwin1.dll
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\ADVAPI32.DLL
      C:\WINDOWS\system32\KERNEL32.dll
        C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntdll.dll
      C:\WINDOWS\system32\RPCRT4.dll
        C:\WINDOWS\system32\Secur32.dll

in the second case, as expected

$ cygcheck  mount
Found: E:\cygwin2\bin\mount.exe
E:\cygwin2\bin\mount.exe
  E:\cygwin2\bin\cygwin1.dll
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\ADVAPI32.DLL
      C:\WINDOWS\system32\KERNEL32.dll
        C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntdll.dll
      C:\WINDOWS\system32\RPCRT4.dll
        C:\WINDOWS\system32\Secur32.dll

Regards
Marco
