Re: Windows 95 installation

Pietro,
When you say chmod "has no effect" do you mean
it doesn't change the permissions, or that after the persmission
is changed, you still can't get it to run?

Assuming the former, perhaps you can't chmod because the
file is owned by user 500, and you are not loged in as user 500?
Maybe you could become root and change it?
I know virtually nothing about bash in this cygnus/w32 environment,
so maybe none of that makes sense (eg maybe there is no "root" user, 
but that seems like a direction to think about.
