What would you suggest before I search an 8-GB volume for the directory entry with a disk editor? I would appreciate any help (pointers to NTFS directory structure description also welcome). Scandisk didn't report any problems. Thanks in advance, Baurjan. -- 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/
