1.5.25-15: problem with mount table


Just a few minutes ago, I tried to unmount a few mounts I had the
previous semester. Because I was not able to unmount each specific
mount I had, I instead ran umount -a, which erased both the /bin and
/etc entries from the mount table. A few notes: I realize I should not
be using mount and should rather be using ln. I tried reinstalling
cygwin to repair the mount table, and that did not work thus far. I
tried remounting them, but to no avail.

What's happening now, is that when I run cygwin it does not
autmatically cd me to my user directory, and I had to add to the
windows path for bash to even see cygcheck, ls, and basics like that.
I'm attaching cygcheck.out, and if anyone has any idea how to repair
the mount table from my mistake, please help.

Thank you,
Mike
