Cygwin.................. |

It's getting a bit off topic but actually more Gentoo. Does anyone |
| 30 |
have a good link for running portage under Cygwin? I found this one |
| 31 |
but it fails at the step that does the mount: |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
http://www.gentoo-wiki.info/HOWTO_Gentoo_on_Cygwin |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
This command failed for me: |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
Mark@gamer /usr |
| 38 |
$ mount -o `cygpath -m /usr/.managed/portage/` /usr/portage |
| 39 |
mount: invalid option - 'D:/cygwin/usr/.managed/portage/' |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
Mark@gamer /usr |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
If I could build a mini-Gentoo environment in Cygwin and take |
| 44 |
advantage of portage and emerge to get cdrtools then this might work |
| 45 |
for me. I don't have the time or interest to become a real Cygwin-er. |
