I just upgraded my first XP Pro machine from 1.5 to 1.7 - a couple of minor issues
Part of the post-install failed with many popup dialogs - "The procedure entry point __ctype_ptr__ could not be located in the dynamic link library cygwin1.dll". After a reboot bash wouldn't start - same error message. Reinstalling the base package cleared this issue up. Cygwin.bat doesn't find my home directory (which is a sym link) rathe it prints a message telling me that there isn't a ./.bashrc in /usr/bin. Looks like Cygwin.bat is identical between 1.5 and 1.7 but the behavior is different. I thought this might be related to the mount point changes - but running copy-user-registry-fstab didn't change anything. I did notice that this script uses $USER which isn't set for me. I set it and re-ran the script but I don't see any difference. I never did see a /etc/fstab.d/$USER directory - but I don't have user mount points on this machine. I also created a none sym link home directory but that didn't help either. Are other folks seeing this behavior ?
