Actually you dont need no registry entries. For a minimal approach
on test PCs I only move the *.exe and *.dll from /bin to the
machine and start a shell. It "mounts" the drives to /cygpath/x
and thats it. Ok, you need the directory in your path var in order
to find some commands.

What commands wont work without mount points is a different story.
It depends how you define "cygwin" ;)

 harry
