Re: new install of cygwin with pdksh doesn't work

[Chris Abbey <cabbey at bresnanlink dot net>]

As Earnie suggested, comparing the outputs, with attention to the mount
point information will show that /cygdrive/? is mounted differently between
the two machines, popcorn (I'll guess is the working one) mount with the
flags as 0x0020 while nachos (I'll guess doesn't work) mounts with 0x0022.
I'll venture a guess that you're accessing the scripts from /cygdrive/?/...
right? (because the other mounts are the same for both.

a solution, as Christopher suggested, is to remove the ^M from the files.
the easiest way I know of to do this is to pipe the script through "tr -d '\r'"
so for example:

tr -d '\r' < /cygdrive/c/myscript > /tmp/myscript
mv -f /tmp/myscript /cygdrive/c/myscript

the other would be to mount the location of the script in an explictly
controlled mount point (text mode), or to change the default mount
mode.
