Re: [MiNT] Strange getcwd() return value

When you are in MINT-domain you get posix-paths (/a/b/c). When you are not on drive u: / is the root of your current drive (D:/), and not the real /
(U:/), that's why they add that /dev/d.

OK. This, I didn't know. Thanks.

I'm not sure but I think the very early MiNT-versions had all drives mapped under /dev, e.g. /dev/c for c:/. Maybe that's a remainder of that time.
