I have no idea if this is useful to those debugging this. If no, I apologise for the post. On windows, my user name is 'Cliff Stanford' with the space. I was seeing these hangs until I put in a symlink for my home directory and added a line to /etc/passwd with a user of "cliff" rather than "C

All, OK, so I tried a lot of things already tried, and at least one thing that hadn't been tried ;). I must admit I haven't followed everything said in the threads so didn't realise we already knew cygpath wasn't actually starting. So, getting this straight in my own head. Setup runs normally.
