Hello,

I'm a brand new Cygnus 19 Beta user on Windows 95.  I have a couple 
simple questions:

1) What's the use for the "mount" command?  Why is it needed? 

2) What's the name of the bash file that's executed when you first start up a
bash window?  What directory does it go into?  I'd like to put in a file with
some aliases, like my Solaris box's ~/.cshrc.  Where is the bash FAQ file so
I don't have to ask simple questions again? 

3) After installing Cygnus my Windows 95 boot sequence hangs for about 30
seconds just before the user screen appears (i.e. a black screen after the
big splash panel but before the screen with the "Start" button on it). 
What's it waiting for? 

Thanks.

	Mike
