Huh? As expected, it's working. $ cat /etc/fstab none /mnt cygdrive binary,posix=0,user 0 0 $ mount C:/cygwin/bin on /usr/bin type ntfs (binary,auto) C:/cygwin/lib on /usr/lib type ntfs (binary,auto) C:/cygwin on / type ntfs (binary,auto) C: on /mnt/c type ntfs (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto) $ sed -ie 's#/mnt#/#' /etc/fstab $ cat /etc/fstab none / cygdrive binary,posix=0,user 0 0 $ mount -a $ mount C:/cygwin/bin on /usr/bin type ntfs (binary,auto) C:/cygwin/lib on /usr/lib type ntfs (binary,auto) C:/cygwin on / type ntfs (binary,auto) C: on /c type ntfs (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto) D: on /d type vfat (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto) Y: on /y type nfs (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto) So, did you call `mount -a' after changing /etc/fstab, or, alternatively, stop all Cygwin processes and restart them?
