For FAT drives, this would be obviously pointless. -- WBR, Andrey Repin (anrdae...@freemail.ru) 13.07.2012, <04:42> Sorry for my terrible english... -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
