You don't need to hit Enter, you DO have prompt in cmd BEFORE setup start to print it all into window. (Therefore, the prompt is licated atop of that pile of text, but that's a problem with Windows native console handling, bash don't have this issue, not with setup.exe at least) My question was, considering it's location on a network share \\DAEMON1\arc\cygwin\install , what it looking for in the quoted places, and is it normal to have these failed attempts, or do I gain any advantage having the files it's looking for? -- WBR, Andrey Repin (anrdae...@freemail.ru) 08.12.2010, 14:11 Sorry for my terrible english... -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple

skipping initial setup screens for existing installation with setup.exe?
When I want to install a new package in my existing cygwin installation, I fire up setup.exe and blow through the first couple screens that ask me about installation directory, mirrors, packages directory, etc, to get to the package installation menu. Is there a way I can skip those initial setup screens and go straight to package selection once I have my installation going?

Hello Jeremy - Thanks for your help :) I had tried the -M option, but got no window. Perhaps there's another problem that's causing my symptoms. I'm using Windows Vista.

I wish I could help more, but I don't have a Vista installation on which to try this. It *should* work though. The setup maintainer should be able to give you more detailed pointers once he sees the thread. Something to look for are the log files setup creates when running: http://cygwin.com/faq/faq-nochunks.html#faq.setup.setup-fails Perhaps those logs have useful information. Also I had noticed that the -M switch is not listed in the FAQ http://cygwin.com/faq/faq-nochunks.html#faq.setup.cli Good catch. I'm not sure of the exact procedure, but I believe that a patch with the updated information would be accepted. -Jeremy -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple

Maybe you are supplying the -M argument incorrectly in your shortcut? You may have double quotes around the setup.exe path. Make sure to put the arguments outside the quotes. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
