Judging from the error message in your original post: make[1]: *** No rule to make target `<path>`, needed by `<rule>`. Stop. it doesn't sound like 'mkdir' is failing--rather, it sounds like 'make' can't figure out what command is needed to create 'path'. Can you post the rule that's intended to do that? -- 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
