Hello!
I've tried the mount -c / command, as well as the changes in fstab
with a restart and it still doesnt work! Am I missing something?
You appear to be expecting that you can run the command above while
you're sitting in a path under /cygdrive and that you'll somehow
magically be remapped to the new location. It doesn't work that
way. Try this:
cd /
mount -c /
ls /c
With that you should see the contents of your C drive. If you
don't see that, try 'mount -p'. From that, you should see:
Prefix Type Flags
/ user binmode
If not, you're definitely doing something wrong. We'll need a
full problem report -> <http://cygwin.com/problems.html>
Also, keep in mind that setting the cygdrive path with the 'mount'
command is a runtime thing only. As soon as the last Cygwin
process on your system terminates, it resets to 'cygdrive' again.
That's the reason the '/etc/fstab' method also exists. But stick
with the above recipe until you understand what's happening and
you see results you want. Then you can continue your experimentation
using '/etc/fstab' if you prefer.
