In the same directory as cygwin1.dll, of course. Or a path relative to
it. That's easy to find, and doesn't have to be written in portable
POSIX-y code - stuff at that level

Now, why not store these things in goold old fuzzy and warm text

You seem to be missing the point that you shouldn't be worrying
about where such things as the mount table are stored. Just use
'mount -m'.
No, I guess you miss my point. Especially
just the mount entries
to save your mount entries
start a windows command prompt (comman.com or cmd.exe depending on your
windows version)#
cd c:\cygwin\bin
run mount -m mounts.bat
then backup the mounts.bat file along with the rest.
when you have rinstalled and restored
cd c:\cygwin\bin
and
Did you also back up and restore the HKLM\SOFTWARE\Cygnus Solutions
registry key?

Um, it's the mount table. Use mount -m to backup your mounts. That is
why it was designed.

Then, as I suspected, you don't have to worry about anything but the
mount table.
Now, why not
