Hi Larry,
Well, I wish it were that simple. That command doesnt work - it needs the Win32 file system to basic utilities like ls, etc.
When eCos is installed, it somehow makes c: mount on /ecos-c, it previously was /. We're trying to find a way to put it back.

Hi,
I'm using Cygwin. I wish to change the default path for C: from /ecos-c/ to /.
When I type "mount" in cygwin, I get the following:
C:\PFARM\cygwin on / type system (binmode) c: on /ecos-c type user (textmode) c: on / type user (textmode) e: on /cygdrive/e type user (textmode,noumount) f: on /cygdrive/f type user (textmode,noumount) h: on /cygdrive/h type user (textmode,noumount) i: on /cygdrive/i type user (textmode,noumount)
C:\PFARM\examples\EVBA7Board\GNU\Simple\RAMCode>
The utility I'm using fails unless C: on the Windows box is mounted as '/'.
Any suggestions?
Shane.
p.s.
"Whenever Cygwin generates a POSIX path from a Win32 one, it uses the longest matching prefix in the mount table. Thus, if C: is mounted as /c and also as /, then Cygwin would translate C:/foo/bar to /c/foo/bar."

Seems like you're answering your own question. Try 'umount -f /ecos-c'.
