I did not test with mount/unmount on windows. But, you cannot delete a directory from which a program is invoked. chdir does solve that problem. But I can't seem to think of the correct "/" equivalent on windows (specially when I consider mounted shares etc). So I was hoping to not do anything here till I really need it. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
