Check in /etc/postinstall and see if it has 00bash.sh or 00bash.sh.done, and in either case, remove the link and (re-)run the script. (Make sure no other cygwin processes or services are running except for the one bash shell you're using to do this). cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today.... -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
