Re: fdisk on cygwin
Here is my mount info: *J* is the SD card in SD slot and & *K* is the
USB stick.

Now I have a problem that the SD card (inserted in to SD slot) is not
getting seen from fdisk. A USB stick can be seen though. Note that the
card is detected and works properly when accessed from WIndows Vista.
I also saw the correct drive J appears in /cygdrive.
sda - hdd
sdc - usb stick
