I've been using Cygwin for about 1/2 a year, on my computer at work (Win98SE)  I recently got a new computer for home that runs WinME.  When I tried to install Cygwin, I get the error message "can't open (null) for reading" or something like that.  This error occurs during the installation of the following packages:

Autoconf-2.53-1
Autoconf-devel-2.53-1
automake-1.6a-1
automake-devel-1.6-1
bison-1.35-1
libpng-1.0.13-3

   Anyway, despite the messages, I manage to get most of the stuff installed, and it (sort of) works.
