<p>Not in home but in its ADMIN subdir, and with forward slash in the cd command. \
MSYS is going to create a subdir matching current user and set the HOME var to that \
path, unless there was already a value for it when MSYS was started, in which case \
your ~ is going to be what has been set there. See /etc/profile for more details.</p>



<p>Personally I like to start in the desktop directory, and since /home is mounted to \
C:\Users here, I just need to cd ~/Desktop in my ~/.profile. Maybe you like something \
like that, instead of initiating in the root of MinGW, which sounds like you would \
want to modify it.</p>
