Cygwin relies entirely on the underlying 'doze OS for file-system support, device drivers, and so on. Since there is no 'doze support for jffs2, there is no way to format and mount such a filesystem under cygwin. http://cygwin.com/acronyms#PTC, of course ;-) > as the version available at > http://cygwin.mirrors.pair.com/jffs2/mkfs.jffs2 appears to > be a Linux executable. That's because ttere are several projects mirrored there. If you look at the top level directory listing at http://www.cygwin.mirrors.pair.com/, you'll see that it has a copy of the entire sourceware.org directory tree. Only stuff under the cygwin subdirectory is cygwin related; the stuff under jffs2 is indeed Linux-targeted. cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today.... -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
