Hello all!

I'm trying to install beta cygwin version parallel to the current one.
I chose the different directory to install in and different one to
store downloaded packages.
Installer shows me that I have several installed packages even at first run.
They are the packages from my current installation.
I have to select all the packages with "keep" resolution and change it
to "reinstall" to make beta installation work.

I suppose the reason is that installer uses "C:/cygwin" directory
instead of the directory that I typed in to search installed packages.
Is it?

Also I have several errors that sound like "cygreadline.dll not found"
whilst installation.
I guess the reason is the same.

Thanks,
Igor
