Re: Problems accessing c: root folder - permissions?

Hi All:

I've searched for solutions to this problem and can remember running
into it in the past. For some reason, something happened to my root
dir on C: and im not sure how it happened exacty. When i go to
/cygdrive/c/ and attempt an 'ls' ( or similar ) here's what I get....

$ ls
ls: reading directory .: No such file or directory

however I can still access the directories in that directory if i
specifically go into each directory. I'm thinking this is a permission
problem on c: and i've changed it a few times with no success.

Any ideas?
