Yes, same way you have to mkdir /cygdrive if you want it to show up in a directory listing I'm afraid. > > > >2. ls -al / doesn't actually show /proc > > > >3. ls -al /proc shows (something like) > > > >dr-xr-xr-x 10 0 medicine 0 Jan 1 1970 1951627 > >dr-xr-xr-x 10 0 medicine 0 Jan 1 1970 2022611 > >dr-xr-xr-x 7 0 medicine 0 May 2 07:11 registry > >-r--r--r-- 1 0 medicine 0 May 2 07:11 uptime > >-r--r--r-- 1 0 medicine 0 May 2 07:11 version Hmm - maybe the process date/times could be set to when the process was created. > > > >4.

There are a few other bugs that I'm aware of: i) cat /proc/<dir> gives "File exists" instead of "Is a directory" error. ii) cat /proc/nofile gives "No such file or directory" error (correct), but cat /proc/<pid>/nofile gives "Read only file system" error. iii) cp <file> /proc/nofile gives "No such file or directory" instead of "Permission denied" or "Read only file system" error. I'll try to fix these as and when I have the time.
