You have to ask such questions at the Cygwin/XFree86 mailing list. Harold
-----Original Message----- From: Tagas [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, March 29, 2002 9:02 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: XFree86 Hi, I was reading through the mailing list after discovering i have the dreaded IO error 104. This is what you suggested to do: "Sounds like you need to mount your drives in binary mode, and retry the installation as the font files don't quite work right in text mode." I tried typing mount -b -f as has been suggested to me but bash complains that there aren't enough arguments in the command. Since i am relatively new to Unix, i was hoping that you could shed some light on what drives to mount in binary mode, and how to execute the command.. i have read the help in cygwin and on the net, but it doesn't seem applicable (btw, my XWin.log is nearly exactly the same as the one that was posted on the net). Thanks for any help in advance Tagas
