Hi folks,

	I'm running the cygwin on Windows XP Embedded.  It seems to work fine
for my minimal purposes, but for some reason, /dev/null is not working.  When
I type "echo foo > /dev/null" or "echo foo >> /dev/null", I get the following
error:

bash: /dev/null: No such file or directory

Can anyone suggest things to try to diagnose this problem?

I can work around using a garbage file, but figured I would report it.

Regards,

David Morgan
