Date: Wed, 24 Jan 2001 17:29:06 -0800 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2653.19) Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" I have a few questions about the setup of Cygwin: * If you use the Setup.exe program to install Cygwin, does that update the Windows-NT registry in any meaningful way? * Could I use the Setup program to install Cygwin on a Windows-NT share and would that be immediately useable by others (assuming they update their PATH variables)? * If I use Setup to update this share (assuming its quiet), would users need to do something (like fix their registry)? * Does Setup remove old files during update? * Can Setup update itself? * What is the latest version of Setup (I have 2.6)?
