But, I wouldn't bother, since all the drives are available via the /cygdrive virtual directory, called the "Cygwin drive prefix." Use 'mount -c' to change to Cygwin drive prefix to anything else you want, like say, /. Alex> Which options will I need to specify with mount(1) though?

The only mount option you might want to use is -b for binary mounts.

As long as the mounts are done correctly, GCC and Perl should work fine. I would say just try it out, and see if you have any problems. -- Dario Alcocer -- Sr. Software Developer, Helix Digital Inc. alcocer@helixdigital.com -- http://www.helixdigital.com -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
