I've been having problems making CD-R's with symbolic links (the kind made when nowinsymlinks is set) which function under cygwin.
I wanted to put symbolic links on a CD-R which cygwin could follow on any machine. Then I could just toss in a CD, mount it under cygwin, and have the whole lot there, symlinks and all.
However, it seems that (after posting to some groups) the system attribute doesn't get set when a system file is burned on a CD-R - it just becomes a "normal" file instead, and hence doesn't look like a symbolic link anymore under cygwin.
Any suggestions on how to get around this would be greatly welcome, Cheers.
