I tried to use start>run C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe -c/etc/postinstall/terminfo0.sh
But nothing happens (actually a black window opens for a second and then it closes)...
Any idea?

Open a console window (cmd.exe) and type the following:


C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe -x -c /etc/postinstall/terminfo0.sh

Here is what I get...

C:\Users\Massimo>C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe -x -c /etc/postinstall/terminfo0.sh
+ /etc/postinstall/terminfo0.sh
/usr/bin/bash: /etc/postinstall/terminfo0.sh: No such file or directory


My WAG is either more didn't install for some reason (such that you don't have this
file) or you are suffering from <http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#BLODA> or
<http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#3PP>. Please *attach* your cygcheck output as
requested by <http://cygwin.com/problems.html>.
