Greetings, Eliot Moss!

> Dear Cygwiners --

> For convenience, I would like to mount my OneDrive folder under /cygdrive/o.

> I put this line in my /etc/fstab:

> c:/Users/Eliot\040Moss/OneDrive /cygdrive/o ntfs binary,noacl,posix=0,user 0 0

/cygdrive is a system entry point. Manually placing anything there is asking
for trouble down the road.

> However, /cygdrive/o is not created.  Manually doing this:

I've yet to see a system, where `ls -l /cygdrive` lists the drives, but they
do work if pointed directly at.

>    mount -obinary,noacl,posix=0,user "/c/Users/Eliot Moss/OneDrive" /foo

subst O: "C:\Users\Eliot Moss\OneDrive"

Then you could simply access it as /cygdrive/o as you wished.

> results in this output if /foo does not exist:

> mount: warning - /foo does not exist.
> mount: /foo: Invalid argument

> and this output if I do mkdir /foo first:

> mount: /foo: Invalid argument

`-o binary,…`

> Hints on how to make this mount work?
