Hi --


I have an unreliable internet connection, so I can't use the internet
install with setup.exe.  I am trying to install cygwin after first
downloading the packages, but there are way too many for me to download
all of them.

I have two questions:

What is the bare minimum of packages I need to install to get bash working?

Is it possible to install and add packages afterwards, like if I want to
try out stuff later?

Thanks for the help.
