This has been discussed numerous times on this list.
What I did was follow the directions of one of the
posts here to start a bash session by typing bash at a
dos prompt, doing a ps, and kill -9 of the process
that is tagged 'cygpath' or 'cygpth' (one of these).
Also, it has been recently recommended to run
setup.exe from a dos prompt or bash session, not from
Win.
Attached is the message with the instruction above.
Hope this helps.

Hi all,
I've just installed cygwin on my new machine (WOO HOO Finally) - install
from local directory, package files were downloaded yesterday morning (UK),
install everything. The post install scripts hung as above, but instead of
cancelling the install, I decided to see if I could just do enough to free
up the issue.
I went into the bin directory under the new installation, and ran bash.exe
with a double click. No paths seemed to be set up, so to run ps I had to
use ./ps but here is what I saw...
bash-2.05b$ ./ps
PID PPID PGID WINPID TTY UID STIME COMMAND
1260 1 1260 1260 con 11125 10:25:27 /usr/bin/sh
4004 1260 1260 4004 con 11125 10:25:27 /usr/bin/sh
I 1876 4004 1260 1876 con 11125 10:25:27 /usr/bin/bash
2172 1876 1260 2172 con 11125 10:25:27 /usr/bin/bash
412 2172 1260 412 con 11125 10:25:27 /usr/bin/cygpath
2732 1 2732 2732 con 11125 10:40:49 /usr/bin/bash
3444 2732 3444 3356 con 11125 10:41:21 /usr/bin/ps
As I thought the cygpath looked a little out of place, I ran ps again to
ensure it was still there...
bash-2.05b$ ./ps
PID PPID PGID WINPID TTY UID STIME COMMAND
1260 1 1260 1260 con 11125 10:25:27 /usr/bin/sh
4004 1260 1260 4004 con 11125 10:25:27 /usr/bin/sh
I 1876 4004 1260 1876 con 11125 10:25:27 /usr/bin/bash
2172 1876 1260 2172 con 11125 10:25:27 /usr/bin/bash
412 2172 1260 412 con 11125 10:25:27 /usr/bin/cygpath
2732 1 2732 2732 con 11125 10:40:49 /usr/bin/bash
3496 2732 3496 3468 con 11125 10:41:23 /usr/bin/ps
And then killed it...
bash-2.05b$ kill -9 412
The setup continued and seems to have completed successfully. Everything
seems to be working OK.
I thought I'd send in this report in case it's of use tracking down the
issue.
Cheers,
Steve Fairbairn
