I know this is beating a dead Horse but I had some spare time on my hands
so I figured
I would set all the Cygnus Questions to rest, ** Hopefully ** for good ..
This is a screen
copy of everything that transpired after installing Cygnus 20.1 on Win98 and
unzipping
Circle30bpl15 to C:\circle30bpl15 directory , then running and killing
running server.
Open Cygnus command prompt and try the following:
BASH.EXE-2.02$ mkdir /bin
BASH.EXE-2.02$ mkdir /tmp
BASH.EXE-2.02$ mount c:\\tmp /tmp
BASH.EXE-2.02$ mount c:\\bin /bin
BASH.EXE-2.02$ mount

BASH.EXE-2.02$ cd /
BASH.EXE-2.02$ cd /CYGNUS/CYGWIN-B20/H-I586-CYGWIN32/BIN/

BASH.EXE-2.02$ cp sh.exe /bin
BASH.EXE-2.02$ cd /
BASH.EXE-2.02$ cd circle30bpl15
