Hi

I downloaded the latest available Cygwin release (2.218) in full from a 
local mirror using wget, and burned it onto a CD (setup.exe is at the 
root level).  When I try to run setup.exe directly off the CD and point 
it at E:\ for packages, the installer seems to sit there idle, yet if I 
copy the CD's contents to a local hard disk and run setup from there, it 
works correctly.

Any idea what the problem might be?
