The shortcut for all of that process is to run the below:
mount -f -s -b "<DOS path to Cygwin installation directory>/bin" "/usr/bin"
mount -f -s -b "<DOS path to Cygwin installation directory>/lib" "/usr/lib"
mount -f -s -b "<DOS path to Cygwin installation directory>" "/"
FWIW, following the reporting guidelines at <http://cygwin.com/problems.html>
would have given the list this information in your initial post. In other
words, there's good stuff at this page. :-)
But as you can see, there is more than one way to a solution. :-)
