I originally installed cygwin on a network drive (p:\cygwin).
Due to various intermittent network problems I wanted to move the
install it to my local c:\ (e.g. c:\cygwin) so that it is no longer
network dependent.
Unfortunately when I tried to put a new install into c:\cygwin, the
/usr/bin and /usr/lib directories still point to my p:\cygwin\
install.
I tried deleting the registry keys HKEY_CURRENT_USER and
HKEY_CURRENT_MACHINE 'Software/Cygnus Solutions' and reinstalling,
but mount still the directories pointing to p:\cygwin\
Don't go looking for solutions in the registry. Use "mount".
How can I get a fresh, independent install on my local c:\ ?
You can rerun "setup.exe" and _specify_the_new_Cygwin_root_.
