Subject: Cygwin running from CD and symlinks
Date: Mon, 02 Oct 2000 13:00:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <82r95zko7z.fsf@dong.NEWP_IRVINE> (raw)
I am trying do the following. I would like to put the Cygwin tree
together with XFree86, XEmacs and Xvnc (which I use as an Xserver) on
a CD. I can pop it into a windows machine (issue a few mount commands
if necessary) and get an instant Unix environment. However, I have
problem with symlinks. Cygwin 1.14 doesn't seem to understand
symbolic links on a CD I made with mkisofs -J -L -r on a Linux Box,
while 1.12 works fine.
