I'm trying to install Cygwin on a stock Amazon EC2 Windows 2008 64-bit
image.
At the end of setup, I get a dialog that says Postinstall script errors

After having installed a basic version of Cygwin I wanted to install X
and a few programs that depend on it. Using one mirror I thought I was
doing well, but no program X were found. Somehow I got the information
that xinit was needed, but that I could not obtain from the mirror. So I

I ran them all, with the following results:

Thanks Marco. Below I react in-line to most of your questions. My main

Thanks for the guidance. But: yes, I refer to a provider on the list of
mirrors found in setup.exe; and yes, I realise the difficulty to ensure
consistency and the urge to put responsibilities on mirror owners. Some

Please give it a test in your environment.

obsolete package. I have not checked that out, so the discussion

I first did as Vincent advised and installed a make on the cygwin itself...
and removed all the reference to the windows program files folder from the
