Could it be that your mount table is messed up after the upgradeto NT?
How does the output of mount look like?
Here's an example from my machine:
ring@BOWMAN{~} mount
Device Directory Type Flags
C:\Cygwin\bin /usr/bin system binmode
C:\Cygwin\lib /usr/lib system binmode
C:\Cygwin / system binmode
M: /home/ring user binmode
ring@BOWMAN{~}
At least the three C:\Cygwin lines must be present.
if not, you must create them manually with the commands:
mount -b -s C:\Cygwin /
mount -b -s C:\Cygwin\bin /usr/bin
mount -b -s C:\Cygwin\bin /usr/bin
The best way to do this is to start a cmd.exe , cd C:\Cygwin\bin
and then execute the commands.
After that Cygwin should start fine.
Another way to solve the problem is of course to re-install cygwin
with setup.exe.
