from /cygdrive
i haven't done it before in linux either, so maybe i'm making an elementary error.
howcome it fails here with dd and cat?
$ dd if=/cygdrive/g of=/cygdrive/c/crp/test.img
dd: reading `/cygdrive/g': Is a directory
0+0 records in
0+0 records out
0 bytes (0 B) copied, 0.00542876 s, 0.0 kB/s
cat also fails on it (even before trying to redirect)
$ cat g
cat: g: Is a directory
