The other user does not have any other user mounts, so that's not it, but I do find that this state of events is reproducable and is not a problem for the original installer, but is a problem for another user installing additional packages. (i.e. I reinstalled man twice, once as the original installer and once as the other user. The first did what it was supposed to do, the second apparently ignored the system mounts). > I'm assuming, of course, that you ran 'mount' as the original installing > user. I never explicitly ran mount. Presumably it was run by setup during the original install. -Norton -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
