Hello,
I have cygwin installed on Windows XP and for some reason my .bashrc
file isn't loaded on startup. I read the FAQ "Why doesn't bash read my
.bashrc file on startup?" but my HOME environment variable is set up
i.e. when I echo $HOME it is correct. I actually copied my .bashrc to
the root directory and it still doesn't load.
Could someone explain how I can set up my .bashrc?

Are you sure you have your /etc/passwd entry setup
correctly? I.e. when you type 'whoami' at the bash prompt,
it gives your username -- and you have an entry in /etc/passwd
setup that lists your home directory?
In that dir you have .bashrc?
