At the moment, it looks like I'm going to have to scrub Windows and re-install it. I suppose before that, I can try installing from our stable mirror. Perhaps the Cygwin on the mirror site is badly buggy (despite all MD5 checksums being correct). > Right now I'll try again, this time deleting both known keys, deleting > all the download files, deleting the 300kb of installed Cygwin files, > rebooting, and starting again. That didn't work, either. Same alert panel titled "mount" that says: "The operation completed successfully." This happens at the 99% Cygwin Setup stage, Downloading. Progress bars look to be about 80% for "Progress:", 99 or 100% for "Total:", and about 5% for "Disk:". luke -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
