find problems

I'm experiencing strange behavior with the "find" command.

I downloaded and installed cygwin 2 or 3 days ago with
the default installation options.

When I try to use "find", it seems to choke on certain directories:

(thebertj)-FX959:/c >cd /
(thebertj)-FX959:/ >find . > /dev/null
find: ./c: No such file or directory
find: ./cygwin.bat: No such file or directory
find: ./cygwin.ico: No such file or directory
find: ./d: No such file or directory
find: ./etc: No such file or directory
find: ./READMEopengl-1.2.1-1.txt: No such file or directory
find: ./usr: No such file or directory
find: ./var: No such file or directory

/c and /d are mount point for c:\ and d:\

Very strange because I can list them with "ls", view them
with "cat" or even change directory to /var and /usr without
any problem but "find" fail on some directory or files.

Any idea what could be the problem ?

Regards,
Jerome
