Re: chmod again


Hi Larry,

Thanks for your patience with this.

Well, a few but I can't guarantee anything.  Type in the following and
send the output here:

which chmod

/usr/bin/chmod


cygcheck chmod

nothing unexpected in there (pointing to appropriate cygwin and windows dlls)



I tried 'ntea' here on 1.3.22 and it works fine for me on FAT (see below). You can try replicating this yourself and see if it provides any insight as to what's different there (beyond XP vs W2K - which is what I'm running here). /Floppy is just a mount point to a:. That's the only FAT partition I have that I was willing to sacrifice for this test. ;-)

Tried it, no luck :(

If this doesn't help, you're quickest solution may be converting your
partition to NTFS and using ntsec.

Yeah except if I go ntfs then it cannot be a writeable linux dual-boot partition.


bleugh....

Someone on the uclinux/microblaze mailing list has managed to get microblaze-gcc up and running on linux. I think when I return from holidays I'll do a linux install and start again there.

Thanks for trying, I really do appreciate it, but it seems like the original stunned surprise from folks when I said I was doing linux kernel builds under cygwin had some basis in reality...

Cheers,

John
