( i guess it needs some environment variables and/or > registry settings ). Is it just the mount points that are the issue? The path? The desktop icon? It is possible to run setup against such an 'installation' to update it? On a related note, it is possible to 'prime' setup with additional packages to select by default. That is whenever I install cygwin, there are about 1/2 dozen packages I always manually select, it would be helpful to have an automated way to doing this.
