#For Windows7, add "//" => c:\Users is translated to //c/Users
$MOUNT_PATH=(($WIN_PATH -replace "\\","/") -replace ":","").Trim("/")

$MOUNT_PATH="/host_mnt/$MOUNT_PATH"
}
elseif ([Environment]::OSVersion.Version -ge (new-object 'Version' 6,1)) {
$MOUNT_PATH="//$MOUNT_PATH"
}

docker run -it -v "${MOUNT_PATH}:/tmp/test" busybox ls /tmp/test
