Storing the entire ext2fs filesystem in a DOS file to simulate a
harddisk isn't cygwin and has no matter to do with BeOS.

This is UMSDOS, old use of the loopback device. (catastrophic in terms

So were installed the first Linux distributions for newbies that just
wanted to 'see how does it works & looks.'
