I tried Three times to install Cygwin on my computer. I downloaded all the packages from the sight: except the databases, which I set to default. I then click the setup icon to start the install. I select Install from local directory and chose where I want to install. Everything goes along just fine until "99%" done. Then I get the "You should reboot for cygwin to take effect.." dialog box. Next, I get the dialog box: "Can't open Package Database for writing: no such file or directory". I then reboot. BUT I don't see cygwin in my start menu and I don't see the cygwin shortcut on my desktop. What is going on, and how should I solve this problem?
I am running Win2k: Pentium 4 ,2.4 GHz 1024 MB RAM. I did not see this problem addressed anywhere on your sight.
