Re: /home dir missing

[prashanthu baragur <prashu dot list at gmail dot com>]

Dave,

I did not ran 

mkpasswd -l -d >/etc/passwd" and "mkgroup -l -d >/etc/group"

Since i did "mkdir /home", /home is just like "/temp" directory.

Any care to be taken during cygwin installation  ??

Thanks
Prashanth
