Mount Problem: "No such file or directory"

Mon Jan 17 13:07:00 GMT 2000

Hello,
I just loaded cygwin and I am having trouble getting paths to resolve
to relative directories that are mount points.
I am running cygwin 20.1 on NT. 
Here is a simple example:
 P90:/>
 P90:/> mount
 Device Directory Type Flags
 C: / native text!=binary

 P90:/>
 P90:/> mount 'c:\tempCygWinTest' /tempWow
 Warning: /tempWow does not exist!
Note 1: I have tried the /tempWow being an empty directory
 (eliminating the warning above) and the results are the same.

 P90:/>
 P90:/> mount
 Device Directory Type Flags
 c:\tempCygWinTest /tempWow native text!=binary
 C: / native text!=binary

 P90:/>
 P90:/> # ABSOLUTE PATHS WORK!
 P90:/> cat /tempWow/Test1.txt
 This is a test.
 I hope it works.

 P90:/>
 P90:/> # RELATIVE PATHS DO NOT WORK :-(
 P90:/> cat tempWow/Test1.txt
 cat: tempWow/Test1.txt: No such file or directory
Note 2: I have a /tmp directory 
Note 3: I have a /bin with a copy of sh.exe 
Any help and/or insight would be greatly appreciated. 
Thanks, 
Kevin
