Re: [MiNT] 'cd' does not like u:

Hi,

I've noticed following -- cd $SYSDIR doesn't work. After some experiments
it's clear the problem is format of this SYSDIR, i.e. "u:/c/mint...", better
said, 'u:' itself. "cd c:" works, "cd d:" works but "cd u:" does not.

1. Should be 'cd' fixed?

2. If it isn't bug, shouldn't SYSDIR have some value which is usable also
with 'cd' ?

I think that depends on who is reading $SYSDIR. xaloader for example uses Fopen() which understands u:/. It must be mintlib that makes from u:/ $PWD/u:/. So it's best to change $SYSDIR to a unix-style path (e.g. /c/mint/...), xaloader still works, at least when called with /c/mint...
