Cygwin installing into wrong directory

[Chuck <skilover at bluebottle dot com>]

Can someone please help me with this? I've searched the docs but its
like finding a needle in a haystack. I got a new PC recently and need to
reinstall cygwin (unless you can tell me an safe way of copying
everything I had before to the new one).

I made a list of all packages I had previously and installed them all on
the new PC. Then I noticed that it created my user home directory in
"c:\documents and settings\userid". I wanted it in "c:\cygwin\home"
where it was before. What happened and how can I move it. I do NOT want
it cluttering up "documents and settings".

TIA
