RE: Moving Cygwin Install dir

[Brian Genisio <briangenisio at yahoo dot com>]

Indeed, I simply made a copy of cygwin.bat, (cygwin_first.bat) and added the
three mount points, /, /usr/bin, /usr/lib to run first.  That sets everything
up that I need, and makes the entire directory portable, as long as I run
cygwin_first.bat first.

Thank you,
Brian
