I'm attempting to install Cygwin on a (rather wimpy - slow CPU & not much disk space) PC, and I keep running into a problem:
In short, somebody installed it on this machine earlier, and didn't do that installation quite right. So, I decided to delete everything on the disk I could find relating to Cygwin, and reinstall it from scratch. However, best I can tell, the installation script appears to be looking at some sort of installation log file (somewhere!) to decide what to install and upgrade, rather than referencing the files actually present or not on the disk. Again, best I can tell, because a long time ago all of the relevant files were in fact installed, it appears to be concluding that nothing needs to be installed, even though I've deleted all of those files since then. Is there any way to tell it stop trying to do an incremental installation any add or replace all files?
