Hi,

I have been using cygwin for several years now.  I am now trying to install 
the latest version.  I deleted my cygwin directory to avoid any possible 
conflicts.  I downloaded the whole distribution to the local drive.

When I start the installation, it checks MD5's and then presents me with the 
choice of packages.  I make my choice, the installation continues by 
"checking MD5 for _update-info-dir-00230-1" and then the following error 
appears:
"Runtime Error! Program: C:\tmpcyg\setup.exe
abnormal program termination"

The error message is not very helpful (true to its Window$ heritage).
There are no messages available in Event Viewer.

Running Win2k, 5.00.2195, SP4

What should I do next?

Thanks
