Files in /etc missing after new install

[BUEHL,REINER (HP-Germany,ex1)]

If I run /etc/postinstall/base-files-mketc.sh.done from bash promt I get the
following error messages:

/bin/uname: not found
/bin/cygpath: not found
Unknown system type ; exiting

PATH is set to /bin:/usr/bin and "ls /bin" shows that uname.exe and
cygpath.exe exist there. All files in /etc/postinstall have the .done
extension and base-files package has been installed. Any ideas?

Best regards,
Reiner.
