To whom it may concern

I have done several cygwin installs on both Windows XP and Vista systems. 
However this latest install on a Windows Vista 32-bit system, resulting cygwin 
windows is not giving me the same results. There are several differences, such 
as;
1. Path variable is not set to see "/usr/local/bin", "/usr/bin", "/usr/X11R6/bin", or "." 2. Resulting window is set at "/usr/bin" not in my $HOME directory.

Has anybody seen this situation before? If so, what can be done to correct it?


Sounds like at least some of your postinstall scripts didn't run.  Either
rerun 'setup.exe' and just page through without selecting anything to let
'setup.exe' run them for you or go to '/etc/postinstall' and run any
script there that doesn't end in '.done'.  If you do the latter, it's
best to append '.done' to the script names once you've run them, just
so it's obvious to everyone that they were run.
