XP & mount: Permission denied

Hi all, I have a problem with mounting drives into my freshly installed Cygwin 1.3.22(0.78/3/2) under XP. If I try to execute mount -f -s -b "c:" "/c" I get a permission denied error. http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2002-09/msg01368.html suggests that this may have something to do with my user

Using cygwin DLLs in no-cygwin applications

Dependency error for package gsl

Hi all, the setup.ini lacks the requirement for "lapack". lapack provides cygblas.dll, which is required for more or less all programs using gsl. On a side note: I have installed gsl, gsl-dev and gsl-doc, and can compile and link programs using cyggsl-0.dll, but on execution they silently die. Is
