@subsection Setup screwed up my mounts!
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Setup will remove the following mounts, should you have them:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
@example
|
||||||
|
/
|
||||||
|
/usr
|
||||||
|
/usr/bin
|
||||||
|
/usr/lib
|
||||||
|
/var
|
||||||
|
/lib
|
||||||
|
/bin
|
||||||
|
/etc
|
||||||
|
@end example
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It will then restore (or create new) mounts for /, /usr/bin and /usr/lib
|
||||||
|
as follows (assuming the default install root C:\cygwin):
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
@example
|
||||||
|
Device Directory
|
||||||
|
C:\cygwin\bin /usr/bin
|
||||||
|
C:\cygwin\lib /usr/lib
|
||||||
|
C:\cygwin /
|
||||||
|
@end example
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Since setup is not a Cygwin program, it cannot know about your mounts
|
||||||
|
(or symlinks, for that matter), and so must impose and enforce this
|
||||||
|
structure. You should not try to defeat it, unless you know what you
|
||||||
|
are doing and can deal with the consequences.
