You can also map this Windows directory mount point to a of its own in
Windows. To do this, run 'winsetup &' as your regular Windows user.
Under
'Personal Win4Lin Session Config: win', there should be a 'Drives &
Filesystem'
tag. Click on that, and you will see the drives you currently have
identified. There is an 'add' button at the bottom to add new drive
definitions
into the configuration. You can figure a drive for any directory you may
have mounted in Linux. With the Win4Lin 2.0.1 release, you should also
be able
to directly mount DOS-based drives in Windows.
