I mean install from the Cygwin Directory. Simply use setup and let it download from the internet all the packages. Then maintaining the directory structure of the directories where setup placed the downloaded files - move them wherever you would like. Make sure that setup.exe and setup.ini reside in the directory where the contrib and latest directories are located. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
