While we can't expect everyone to do a thorough mailing list archive search before posting, we do at least expect them to look at the posts from today. You problem has been reported before, and was, in fact, reported again today:
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2003-10/msg00134.html
The problem is known. You can just move /etc/postinstall/XFree86-bin-icons.sh to /etc/postinstall/XFree86-bin-icons.sh.done. Then, from a Cygwin bash shell run '/usr/XFree86/bin/XFree86-bin-icons.sh'. That should create the icons for you. The problem right now is that one of the utilities we use hangs when we run the script from setup.exe, but it does not hang when we run the script from a bash shell. The problem is being looked into.

I'm trying to install cygwin/xFree86. The install program runs to 99% but does not finish. It stops at 'Running...' the /etc/postinstall/XFree86-bin-icons.sh
Any suggestions?
