Mount points are no longer persistent unless you go out of your way to make them so. cgf -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
[1.7] mount -c is lost after reboot
Hi, Whenever I do a "mount -c /" in cygwin 1.7, it seems to revert back to /cygdrive after rebooting on Windows XP x64. Any ideas on how to have the mount point change persist through reboots? Thanks, -Edward -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
