I'm trying to install CygWin 1.3.2 (latest) and have some trouble.
I downloaded the packages, using the CygWin setup, and saved them
locally. When I run the actual install, the binaries don't end up
where I told it.
In particular, the packages are at e:\cygwin_install and I want
to install the whole thing to e:\CygWin
Notice that many of the files end up in a completely different
directory. E.g. installing 'bash', this is the setup.log.full:
Installing latest/bash/bash-2.05-6.tar.gz
Installing file c:/cygnus/cygwin-b20/H-i586-cygwin32/bin/bash.exe
Installing file c:/cygnus/cygwin-b20/H-i586-cygwin32/bin/bashbug
Installing file E:/CygWin/usr/doc/bash-2.05/bash.html
Installing file E:/CygWin/usr/doc/bash-2.05/bashref.html
Installing file E:/CygWin/usr/doc/bash-2.05/COMPAT
Installing file E:/CygWin/usr/doc/bash-2.05/COPYING
Installing file E:/CygWin/usr/doc/bash-2.05/FAQ
Installing file E:/CygWin/usr/doc/bash-2.05/INTRO
Installing file E:/CygWin/usr/doc/bash-2.05/NEWS
Installing file E:/CygWin/usr/info/bash.info
Installing file E:/CygWin/usr/man/man1/bash.1
Installing file E:/CygWin/usr/man/man1/bashbug.1
I see no reason that the binary files should end up on c:/...
Looking at the raw tar file, I get:
$ gzip -d <bash-2.05-6.tar.gz | tar -tvf -
-rwxr-xr-x corinna/root 473600 2001-05-08 10:24:31 bin/bash.exe

Could this be a problem with an old CygWin install? I have had it on this
box before, but it has long since been removed.
Any help much appreciated.
