broken hardlinks and "permission denied" while copying under cygw in Unix/Linux type files from CD-ROM


Hi,

 - I am getting broken hardlinks and "permission denied" while copying under
cygwin Unix/Linux type files from CD-ROM  ...
I was advised that: " fadsroot must be copied exactly, any error
message probably is a result of the above mentioned incompatibilities
 and the resulting FS would be broken."

What would be the recommended course of actions ?
Should I manually create softlink instead of each broken hardlink ?

What is the solution for "permission denied" files ?

Thanks,
Alex

PS Yuli - I hope that is the right forum for above questions ?
