Congrats and much thanks! One minor nit: When cdk.exe is run it first asks you a directory to unpack to and defaults to c:\tmp. This step confused me at first since I thought it was asking where b19 should be installed (and I know it doesn't go in /tmp). So I changed it to c:\cygnus\b19 and installed. When I was done it was apparent that I had done the wrong thing, so I just removed everything and started again. Just thought that the first install panel should be more clear. I loved the install process. Very slick compared to b18. Tip: if people need to keep around b18, you can easily set it up in a seperate account, the only thing I've had to do was make a second "/bin" directory and mount it over the other one from 1 account (in my setup /bin is b18's bin (has b18 sh.exe, and /bin2 is for b19 bins. I mount c:\bin2 to /bin for b19 account) Tim N. - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
