Subject: Errors in documentation of Cygwin CD 1.0

Hello folks.

There are two small error in the documentation which is part of the
Cygwin 1.0 package:

- Pages 60 and 63 do contain examples of mount tables. The entries for
  tape devices have wrong native device names. They must not have
  trailing colons. So

        \\.\tape0:

  is incorrect while

        \\.\tape0

  is correct.

- At the end of page 57 are examples of /etc/passwd and /etc/group
  files. The output is malformed due to formatting problems. Of course
  each entry in both files should be on a single line without trailing
  backslash as they are on U*X systems.

Hope, this helps,
Corinna
