Thanks. I did follow pointer 1. But I have no idea as how to install the mount points in
the system mount table, right now if I do mount in a bash shell, I come up with 

C:\cygwin\bin on /usr/bin type user (binmode)
C:\cygwin\lib on /usr/lib type user (binmode)
C:\cygwin on / type user (binmode)
c: on /cc type user (binmode,exec)
d: on /dd type user (binmode)

showing the mount points /, /usr/bin, and /usr/lib as user mounts. I un-mount the / and
try to mount it with
mount -bs c:\cygwin /
but it does not work.

Thanks for any further help,

-Mike

Two pointers, both from /usr/doc/Cygwin/inetutils-1.3.2.README:

- Before starting any program, be aware that all neccessary configuration
  files in /etc have to be generated first! Call

	iu-config

  once after you installed the inetutils the first time. That
  generates some files: [...]

- No user mount point is valid anymore! You have to install all
  your mount points in the system mount table. This doesn't
  change after you have logged in to a normal user account eg.
  via telnet/rlogin. [...]
