Re: setup messing up ntfs permissions

2010-05-11 Thread Vasya Pupkin
So, I guess there is now way to tell setup.exe to stop messing up NTFS
permissions currently. May I ask to add such feature then?

I can't vouch for the don't do it part, but /etc/fstab is ignored  
because setup.exe doesn't link against cygwin1.dll, thus isn't a Cygwin  
application in the technical sense (although it is of course essential for  
Cygwin as a project or installation).
