Your description makes it sound very much as though one or both of the
following has occurred:

1. You put the file setup.exe and the directory release/ directly under d:/.
For reasons described at
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2002-09/msg00689.html
this usually fails.

or

2. You missed the file setup.ini.

However: installation from a CD has worked successfully for me: see the text
at the top of the link referenced above for the appropriate architecture.
