Obviously you don't have /bin/ls. Either you didn't make a standard
install or you changed /usr/bin to be a separate directory.

Assuming that you have a /usr/bin/ls you should simply create a
symlink in /bin

	ln -s /usr/bin/ls /bin/ls

If that's definitely not the problem I suggest examining the registry
key HKU/.DEFAULT/Software/Cygnus Solutions/. It might contain unwanted
mount points from an older installation.
