AHA! After applying the attached patch to setup 2.188, I got a clue that the problem was that my 'local' repository was on a remote share '//polgara/private/'. So, I copied the //polgara/private/software/windows/cygwin-new tree over to my local disk -- and things were kinda okay for a while. I got to the chooser screen, and it listed the bzip2 package and libbz2_0 package: CURRENT NEW PACKAGE 1.0.1-6 1.0.2-1 bzip2: sdesc... 1.0.2-1 libbz2_0: sdesc... When I said "install", I briefly got the progress screen -- and then a BSOD. memory dump sent separately. This is on W2K, McAfee *was* turned *off*. Sigh. So, the problem with "unable to get setup.ini from setup.ini" seems to be due to problems handling windows shares in the "local_dir" variable within ini.cc. Now, my problem list is; BSOD SEGV when clicking 'ADD' new site for internet installations. (null pointer) local_dir on a windows share --Chuck
