+<para>
+When you upgrade an existing older Cygwin installation to Cygwin 1.7, your old
+system mount points (stored in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE branch of your registry)
+are read by a script and the /etc/fstab file is generated from these entries. 
+No such automatism exists for the user mount points formerly stored in the
+HKEY_CURRENT_USER branch of the registry.  There's a bash script for your
+convenience, which creates a user-specific /etc/fstab/${USER} file for you,
+called /bin/copy-user-registry-fstab.  For more information on the new fstab
+files see the User's Guide at
