Now when ran with the proper permissiong, setup.exe still hangs. Here is the output just before setup.exe hangs: -------------------------------- start $c/cygwin-packages/setup -q -n -D -K http://cygwin.com/setup.exe.sig -l C:\cygwin-packages -R C:\cygwin -s http://ftp.jaist.ac.jp/pub/cygwin -P openssh Starting cygwin install, version 2.774 User has backup/restore rights io_stream_cygfile: fopen(/etc/setup/net-proxy-host) failed 2 No such file or directory io_stream_cygfile: fopen(/etc/setup/net-proxy-port) failed 2 No such file or directory io_stream_cygfile: fopen(/etc/setup/extrakeys) failed 2 No such file or directory Current Directory: C:cygwin-packages Could not open service McShield for query, start and stop. McAfee may not be installed, or we don't have access. Selected local directory: C:cygwin-packages ---------------- end
I have no idea about what the reference to "McShield" or to "McAfee" is about. All I can think of is that it is proprietary software that I don't own and Mr. McAfee is in South America somewhere. Is the absence of this causing setup.exe to go crazy and hang? Any advice to get this working would be appreciated.
