I feel like a total retard for not being able to find this out. i've never 
used anything close to UNIX before so all of this is new to me. first off i 
am running version 20.1 and Windows 98    when i try to   "mkdir /bin"   it 
says  "mkdir: cannot make directory `/bin': No such file or directory"     
why is this?  also if someone would be willing to help me, could someone help 
me to get cygnus set up...i'm a little confused by all this.
*Thanks in advance*
