I have 1.5 installed as c:/cygwin and 1.7 as c:/cygwin2. Now running 1.7: emacs> df /tmp Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on C:/cygwin2 58612732 40769352 17843380 70% / The insert-dired function seems to invoke ls as follows, from my "*scratch*" buffer: (call-process "/usr/bin/ls" nil t "-la" "--" "/tmp") 0 (call-process "/usr/bin/ls" nil t "-la" "--" "/tmp/foo") /usr/bin/ls: cannot access /tmp/foo: No such file or directory 2 (call-process "/usr/bin/ls" nil t "-la" "--" "/cygdrive/c/cygwin/tmp/foo") /cygdrive/c/cygwin/tmp/foo 0 So, ls finds something under the 1.5 root, but the 1.7 ones seems empty. > But you might try a more recent version of emacs to see if > you still have the problem.

Of course I wish to try this.
