Cygwin b19 help...

[Adam Balgach]

Hello all, im having tons of problems plotting in Octave, and i think it is
because of Cygwin32 Beta 19.  When i load that up, it gives me this
message...

Cygnus Cygwin32 B19
WARNING: bash couldn't find /tmp, please create one!
bash-2.0$

so i try to make one, by typing in
mkdir /tmp

and it says
"mkdir: cannot make directory '/tmp': No such file or directory

so ive tried creating a tmp folder through winNT with no luck.  however, if
i load up bash and type in this...

cd /
mkdir tmp

then it makes a tmp directory, but it doesnt get rid of the error message at
startup.  i think that if i could make this /tmp directory then i would be
ok.  any thoughts on how to do this? thanks.
