Re: Install Problems

Hello, I've tried several times to install Cygwin on my new desktop,

installing it several times using different mirrors each time and I
get the same problem in every install.
It stops at

Running...

No Package

/etc/postinstall/qnulot.sh


It just freezes there and does nothing...


Did you "Run as" administator when running 'setup.exe'?  Can you run
"cygcheck -s -r -v" and *attach* the output to your reply?  How about
your 'setup.log*' files?

There is no qnulot.sh file according to
<http://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/package-grep.cgi?grep=qnulot.sh> so something
is getting messed up here.  Perhaps removing what you've installed so far
and re-running 'setup.exe' as administrator ("Run as") but just installing
the default packages first would get you going.
