I have the same problem like Thomas Smith (12 Jul 2005):

"When I start the Cygwin Bash Shell for the first, I get dropped to a
shell prompt and placed in /usr/bin. My Home directory isn't 
created..."

The other problem (could not use any commands) was solved by 
installing an older version of coreutils.

Any help appreciated,
Thomas
