dosdevices/c not present.. how is it created?

[Roger Cruz]

The file system is yaffs2 but I am able to create the softlink by hand.  Let me try stepping through that code now that you pointed me to the right place.  Thank you!!

dlls/ntdll/server.c:774
    /* create the drive symlinks */

    mkdir( "drive_c", 0777 );
    symlink( "../drive_c", "dosdevices/c:" );
    symlink( "/", "dosdevices/z:" );


What filesystem does $WINEPREFIX live on?

It would appear that symlink() failed on that filesystem.
