I am unable to install Cygwin on a Windows Datacenter 2008 server image run=
ning in the Amazon Web Services cloud.

The install process fails at the execution of the post install scripts with=
 a bash segmentation fault and core dump. The scripts "complete" but do not=
 actually do anything. Attempting to run them after the install produces th=
e same result, script exit but no actions executed.

Running the commands in the script one at a time from a shell window works,=
 but this is not acceptable, especially for running the ssh host configurat=
ion script !!

Things tried so far: running the setup script in compatibility modes, runni=
ng the scripts after the install completes, running the scripts in bash or =
sh from the command line. Nothing makes any difference, the scripts fail to=
 do the work required.=20

This seems to be the same as a problem reported already this month, with th=
e same Subject line. However I am opening this new thread, as Cygwin is 100=
% required on this server in our environment in order to enable Oracle Grid=
 Control 11g to accept agent data from this server.=20

This is a production level server running Oracle applications and I need ur=
gent HELP solving this Cygwin install failure.
