When I want to install a new package in my existing cygwin
installation, I fire up setup.exe and blow through the first couple
screens that ask me about installation directory, mirrors, packages
directory, etc, to get to the package installation menu.

Is there a way I can skip those initial setup screens and go straight
to package selection once I have my installation going?
