I appear to be having problems creating my /bin directory on my machine.

I have installed full.exe.

Then created /tmp by doing mkdir -p /tmp
But when I try to create a /bin with mkdir -p /bin I get:
  mkdir: cannot create directory '/bin': No such file or directory

I do not have a /bin file existing, and if i create one in windows explorer,
I can 'ls' and see it but I cannot access it at all.

Anyone ever have this probelm?
Ryan
