Re: two versions

Hi,

i want to test cygwin 1.5.X

but not break my set cygwin 1.3.22

so i wonder if installing cygwin 1.5.X in
another path e.g. c:\cygwin_1.5

and configuring all the PATH to my shell (cygwin.bat)
to only include c:\cygwin_1.5\bin (and all related)
would not interfere with my cygwin 1.3.22

it's that posible?
Not really.

or the registry stuff will prevent this!
Bingo.

You can do it if you switch mount tables/paths when you switch between versions.
