The FAQ points out that installing USB, if possible, greatly improves on this
situation. I find also that this enables bash to replace ash, the same as
under NT. Hard to believe, but one of the components, the NT kernel driver,
apparently gives a small but needed boost in NT compatibility. The down side
is having to remove USB before refreshing the OS, and to replace USB
afterwards before getting all the drivers back.
