My experience is that setup MUST be run from Explorer. I've attached stripped down versions of Xfree-bin-icons.sh (and related scripts). I can reproduce it like this: - Put "part1.sh" in /etc/postinstall - put "part[23].sh" in / - ...and run setup.exe from Explorer Choose - Leave virus scanner alone (I have F-secure) - Install from local dir - Select root install dir Root dir "C:\Program\cygwin" For All users Unix text file type - LPD: G:\cygwin-downloads - Select packages * Curr All @ Default [ Next ] When the "part1.sh" script gets executed, it hangs... which can look like this from bash (in rxvt): Hannu AT P450 /etc/postinstall bash (P)PID=(380)2296, s=0 $ mv part1.sh.done part1.sh $ ps -a PID PPID PGID WINPID TTY UID STIME COMMAND 380 1 380 880 con 500 15:59:28 /usr/bin/rxvt 2296 380 2296 2392 0 500 15:59:28 /usr/bin/bash 2220 1 2220 2220 con 500 23:21:00 /usr/bin/sh 768 2220 2220 768 con 500 23:21:00 /usr/bin/sh I 2516 768 2220 2516 con 500 23:21:00 /usr/bin/bash 780 2516 2220 780 con 500 23:21:00 /usr/bin/bash 2532 780 2220 2532 con 500 23:21:01 /usr/bin/cygpath 1976 2296 1976 2388 0 500 23:21:13 /usr/bin/ps $ kill -9 2532 $ ps -a PID PPID PGID WINPID TTY UID STIME COMMAND 380 1 380 880 con 500 15:59:28 /usr/bin/rxvt 2296 380 2296 2392 0 500 15:59:28 /usr/bin/bash 2244 2296 2244 768 0 500 23:21:44 /usr/bin/ps $ mv part1.sh.done part1.sh mv: cannot stat `part1.sh.done': No such file or directory $ tail /var/log/setup.log.full 2003/10/01 23:20:59 XFree86-vfb 2003/10/01 23:20:59 XFree86-xwinclip 2003/10/01 23:20:59 xinetd 2003/10/01 23:20:59 xmlto 2003/10/01 23:20:59 xpm-nox 2003/10/01 23:20:59 zip 2003/10/01 23:20:59 zsh 2003/10/01 23:21:00 running: C:\Program\cygwin\bin\sh.exe -c /etc/postinstall/part1.sh 2003/10/01 23:21:08 mbox note: Nothing needed to be installed 2003/10/01 23:21:10 Ending cygwin install This is with ONE extra bash+rxvt running while the test is done.
