Hello,

I've just built ntfsprogs v 2.0.0 on cygwin (built & linked against cygwin libs),
and it works, provided I substitute h for s on my sata harddisk or usb flash,
or removables.

So if my  Windows partition is /dev/sda1, under cygwin, I  use /dev/hda1 for
ntfsprogs (they use their own emulation for disks?).

Its awkward but works. I hope future version of ntfsprogs will be more 'alike'
to linux/unix disk node mapping
