Tab completion doesn't know about mounts, only directories and files. Since there is not actually a directory in the root named 'c' (underneath the mount), tab completion doesn't consider it. In other words, if you do "ls /" you won't see /c, which is essentially all that tab completion does. You can get the desired behavior though by actually creating a directory there. But you can't do this while /c is mounted, so you'll have to temporarily set the cygdrive to something else. $ mount -c /cygdrive $ mkdir /c $ mount -c / Brian -- 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/
