From: "John Dallaway" Subject: Cygwin32 location of /tmp 27 Mar 1998 19:16:42 -0000 Message-ID: <6fgtsa$mlf$1@korai.cygnus.co.uk> X-Newsreader: Microsoft Outlook Express 4.72.2106.4 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.2106.4 The ECC team have an urgent requirement to automatically create the /tmp directory required by Cygwin32 during their installation process. It appears that Cygwin32 always looks for /tmp in the root of the logical drive containing the Windows installation (usually drive C:). Am I correct? Is there a reason why Cygwin32 does not automatically create /tmp during installation? John Dallaway
