When I try to run setup.exe directly off the CD and point it at E:\ for packages, the installer seems to sit there idle, yet if I copy the CD's contents to a local hard disk and run setup from there, it works correctly. Any idea what the problem might be? -- MICHAEL WARDLE SGI Desktop & Admin Software Adacel Technologies Limited -- 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/
