That narrows down the problem to a specific change, but unfortunately I can not reproduce the problem. I assume, when you say you "mounted" the 2nd drive, you didn't mean a Cygwin mount but rather a Windows junction point, so your drive doesn't show up as D:, but as C:\DriveD in Windows, correct? At least, that's what I tested. The drive has 1577 files and directories in multiple levels, and `find' always prints all of them, regardless whether the drive is mounted as drive or as juntion point. I also tried a Cygwin mount additionally, with the same result. Here are a couple of questions. They are all related to the mount using a junction point. - When you call `ls -l' in the top-level dir of the junction point, are directories recognized as directories? How many links do the directories supposedly have (should be 1)? - Is it possible that this has something to do with permissions? "acl" vs. "noacl". Your cygcheck output doesn't point that out, but who knows. - Eventually, under Cygwin 1.7.6, can you please send us the output of `ls -l' of the top-level dir, and call `strace -o find.trace find' in the top-level dir and send the strace output? Please don't try this with the *working* scenario, the strace of a find finding 100000 files would be a bit... swollen.
