Ignore the last comment.  Cannot run test from command line.


What I did find is that the postinstalls succeed when I run them from a
Cygwin shell as Administrator:

    bash-4.1$ bash.exe -norc -noprofile /etc/postinstall/coreutils.sh
    bash-4.1$ echo $?
    0
    bash-4.1$ bash.exe --norc --noprofile /etc/postinstall/bash.sh
    bash-4.1$ echo $?
    0

So why the exit code of 128 when setup runs these postinstalls?


Regards,
Gerry
