I can think of a couple of possibilities.
What does the output of "mount" say? (/usr/bin should be mapped to /bin)
Can you actually execute /usr/bin/groff.exe? (Permissions problem?)

This sounds like the /etc/postinstall/ stuff did not run correctly. 
Try 'sh /etc/postinstall/update-info-dir.sh" (that may not be the exact
