I'm trying to convert my stock b20.1 installation to use the latest
snapshot. I know about the mount changes -- I did a 'mount
--import-old-mounts'. In /etc, I created passwd and group files thusly:

mkpasswd -l -g > passwd
mkgroup -l > group

I'm using NT, so in the "My Computer"->Properties->Environment pane, I
set CYGWIN=binmode tty ntea ntsec

Then, I rebooted (just to make sure...)

Now, I start bash, and do an 'ls -l'

What did I forget?
