Hello Cygwin Support,

I am trying to install Cygwin silently  through a management tool like SCCM 
(called Bigfix). I went through the FAQ on your website to see what 
commands/switches existed. I would like to install silently without any user 
interaction and so I attempted to use setup-x86_64.exe --quiet-mode and I get 
into an infinite loop for the installation. Bigfix tells me that the 
installation is waiting for user response and will not continue. It gets stuck 
and can't start/finish the installation. Is there any suggestions on what I can 
try? I also want to install a bunch of packages during the installation but 
thought I would try to start at a completely silent installation firsts. 

I have also checked forums as well online to see if anyone else had issues. I 
found a one forum where someone is having the same issue with no resolution 
found here:

Thanks,
Paul
