- If you are using a HPFS partition just set the environment var HOME in
- config.sys. (ie. set HOME=c:/home) Then place you .bashrc in that directory.
- and this should fix your problem. There is currently a bug with bash reading
- the bashrc on a FAT partition. I ported bash to OS/2 and use it as my only
- shell, though it still is rough around the edges.
