Karl,
The answer is in your cygcheck output:
...
C:\CygWin\bin /usr/bin system binmode
C:\CygWin\lib /usr/lib system binmode
C:\CygWin / system binmode
...
You are not using "/cygdrive" as your unmounted volume prefix, you're using
"/CygWin".
I think if you change that or use it in your ls and other commands, all
will work as expected.
