Your attachments were binary, not text.

My apologies to the list for not being more explicit in suggesting that
only the relevant portions of setup.log.full (or at least a compressed
attachment, rather than plain text) be sent - NEVER drop a multi-megabyte
file on a mailing list without good cause.
In your cygcheck:
> Found: C:\Apps\Perl\bin\perl.exe
> Found: C:\Apps\cygwin\bin\perl.exe
> Warning: C:\Apps\Perl\bin\perl.exe hides C:\Apps\cygwin\bin\perl.exe
I doubt that is the problem, but it is worth investigating.
sh appeared to install correctly based on the cygcheck output.
In your setup.log.full, you had lots of these messages:
> 2006/07/25 17:12:47 io_stream_cygfile: fopen failed 2 No such file or
directory
My recollection is that this has been improved in a recent snapshot of
setup.exe - who is in charge of releasing the next setup.exe version?

Hmm - when doing a global install of every single cygwin package (which
usually isn't recommended, but is what you did), it looks like the
setup.exe sort method of postinstall scripts is alphabetical by package
name, not by postinstall name. I wish we could get a setup.exe that
sorted by dependency order instead.

And that must have been where you killed the process. Phooey, it didn't
leave any bread crumbs as to why you thought it was hung. Some of the
postinstalls do take a long time, but I don't recall seeing coreutils'
script ever hang.
