Hi, I just successfully upgraded to cygwin/latest (as of last night's
versions).  I have a simple question that I couldn't find the answer to.

Issuing mount returns the following:
Device              Directory           Type         Flags
c:\cygwin\bin       /usr/bin            user         binmode
c:\cygwin\lib       /usr/lib            user         binmode
c:\cygwin           /                   user         binmode
\                   c:                  user         textmode

I am thinking the last mount point is errant, etc. and I should remove it,
but I don't know.

I cleared all of my previous b20 mounts before installing the upgrade.  So
far, everything works great too (I love having man now!!).  I have run the
b20 bash shell again, and am thinking it may have created it.  Now that I
have the new version running well, I will remove b20.

So should I delete it, or is it supposed to be there?


Also, there is quite a bit of registry info reported by cygcheck that is
from b20 (a few things are even marked b15, and I've only used b20).  Is it
best to remove these, and if so, is there a fast, easy way to do so (an
existing script, etc.) that removes/redoes the registry needs?  I suppose I
could delete all and reinstall...everything runs fine so it is probably best
to leave them?
