This comment doesn`t help anybody!
The problem probably is that you are using the keyb.com in your
autoexec.bat.
Remove it, then the arrow keys will work. You will find a more detailed
explanation in the archives if you search for the "Cursors do not work in
bash
under Win98" thread. Paul Sokolovsky wrote a FAQ entry for this problem,
but
it never made it into the FAQ.

I must have missed this. If somebody could repost it to the list, we'll

Q: Why cursor keys doesn't work under Win95/Win98?
A: Careful examination shows that they not just non-functional, but
rather behave strangely, for example, with NumLock off, keys on numeric
keyboard work, until you press usual cursor keys, when even numeric
stop working, but they start working again after hitting alphanumeric
key, etc. This reported to happen on localized versions of Win98 and
Win95, and not specific to Cygwin (there're known cases of Alt+Enter
(fullscreen/windowed toggle) not working and shifts sticking with
other programs). The cause of this problem is Miscrosoft keyboard
localizer which by default installed in 'autoexec.bat'. Corresponding
line looks like:
keyb ru,,C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\keybrd3.sys
(That's for russian locale.) You should comment that line if you want
your keys working properly. Of course, this will deprive you of your
local alphabet keyboard support, so you should think about
another localizer. exUSSR users are of course knowledgable of Keyrus
localizer, and it might work for other locales too, since it has keyboard
layout editor. But it has russian messages and documentation ;-(
Reference URL is http://www.hnet.ru/software/contrib/Utils/KeyRus/
(note the you may need to turn off Windows logo for Keyrus to operate
properly).

I would like to encourage someone to put this into the FAQ. Here, in Brazil,
the default installation of Windows 95/98 loads keyb.com in the
