reinstallation problems

- Subject: reinstallation problems
Because of problems mentioned previously I uninstalled cygwin
following all the instructions at
http://cygwin.com/faq/faq-nochunks.html#faq.setup.uninstall-all.
However when I installed again and started up the bash shell I did not
get my usual prompt, i.e. the typical Cygwin prompt. Instead I got
this prompt:
bash-3.2$
Also I was started in /usr/bin.
No /home directory was created. No skeleton files were created.
I thought Cygwin automatically does this the first time you start up.
How come it didn't do it? What steps do I manually have to do?
