+@subsection How can I make my own portable Cygwin on CD?
+
+While some users have successfully done this, for example Indiana
+University's XLiveCD @file{http://xlivecd.indiana.edu/}, there is no
+easy way to do it. Full instructions for constructing a porttable Cygwin
+on CD by hand can be found on the mailing list at
+@file{http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2003-07/msg01117.html}.  (Thanks
+to fergus at bonhard dot uklinux dot net for these instructions.)
+
+@subsection How do I save, restore, delete, or modify the Cygwin information stored in the registry?
+
+Currently Cygwin stores its mount table information in the registry.  It
+is recommended that you use the @samp{mount} and @samp{umount} commands
+to manipulate the mount information instead of directly modifying the
+registry.
+
+To save the mount information to a file for later restoration, use
+@samp{mount -m > mounts.bat} To remove all mount information use
+@samp{umount -A}.  To reincorporate saved mount information just run the
+batch file. For more information on using @samp{mount}, see
+@file{http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-utils.html#mount}.
