Good evening from france,
I bought a new box some days ago and decided to install cygwin. I had exactly the same install problem than the other people of the list. My computer is a win xp family edition sp2. I have the administrator rights and installed using the "just me" and "unix" options. What I saw is that the process was not blocked but reserved more and more memory (I stopped at 1Go). when cancelled, setup gave me the message indicated on a post before. I will try in some mns to install again (a fresh install, I removed all by hand after my attempts) without the xorg package in order to obtain a cygcheck command to give you new informations plus I will reinstall these xorg packages.
By the way, I do not understand the debate (?). Your work is great, really. I use cygwin and cygwin-xfree since beta 15. Whatever the problems, unavoidable on such projects, your accomplishments are totally extraordinary. For my part, I consider that whatever you ask me to do to help I have only one choice but to do it.
Thank you again B.Patin
