- Subject: Accessing folders elsewhere than C:\cygwin
I have Cygwin mounted conventionally under Q:\cygwin.
I would like to access files under Q:\else.
But (for example) ls ../../.. only ever attains \cygwin (and lower).
I can use ls /cygdrive/q/else/ (and lower) but this means knowing the
drive name (in this case Q:)
I don't much want to change mount points which are currently
conventionally defined.
Is there a way I can get to Q:\else without knowing the drive name Q:?
Thank you.
Fergus
