Re: Cygwin Environment from ThumbDrive

[Bodger <julian at jlbprof dot com>]

I concentrated on Cygwin sites and did not do a general Google.  The answer
there is not what I want anyway, they suggest copying to the local machine
and that is mostly doable, I would prefer to keep my own installation on my
thumbdrive so that I can keep it clean and up to date.

I will investigate the option presented by the person with the mount script,
that looks interesting.  Not sure about the %d0 thingy will look into it.

Thanx

Bodger
