When setup gets to the post install scripts, most >of the scripts say rm not found ln not found It sounds like you chose the 'download' option rather than the 'install' option when you installed the packages. You have to actually install the files if you want to run them. If you have actually downloaded the files, rerun setup.exe and choose "Install from Local Directory" and you should see some satisfying evidence of cygwin being installed. If not, then try the "Install from Internet" option. cgf -- Please use the resources at cygwin.com rather than sending personal email.
