Shortly after updating vista to service pack 2, Cygwin broke. It can't
find anything. The bash shell launches to /cygdrive/c/cygwin/bin. No
commands work, except for pwd and cd. If I invoke env by ./env (the only
way it works) I get:
bash-3.2$ ./env

I tried a complete uninstall and reinstall but have the same problem. I
used to have /home/strannik as a home directory. I could go back to
that or use the C:\User\strannik, but I can't figure out how to get
either one.
Any idea what could have gone wrong, or what to look for?
(TIA)
