#43 Does not work with cygwin

[Richard van den Berg]

When I try to mount an ext2 drive under cygwin using
ext2fsd I get:

mount: now mounting \Device\Harddisk0\Partition2 ...
Falied.

When I issue the exact same mount command in a cmd
shell, it works fine. I can even see the mounted drive
(E) in /cygdrive/e/ and use it in cygwin. However when
logging in to the system using openssh, the drive does
not show up in /cygdrive/ and thus cannot be used by
cygwin programs.

What it comes down to is that the ext2fsd mount
(version 0.25) cannot be used in a native cygwin terminal.

What was this bug closed? Is it fixed in the latest version?
Will it never be fixed? In either case, please indicate the
resolution using the Resolution option on the right hand
side. Thanks.

cygwin has it's own mount.exe, which brings confliction. Second ext2fsd's mount does not
support parse of it's patch name, cygwin modifies the path pattern. In new version of
Ext2Fsd, mount is removed and Ext2Mgr is used instead.

For the problem of openssh, could you describe it in more detail ?
1, how you mount the ext2 volume and where
2, how you set up the sshd ?
3, how you login via openssh ? ...
