Hope that helps

This setup.log doesn't show any install actions whatsoever.  All it shows
is that you've downloaded a bunch of packages.

I suspect this may have something to do with that "Cannot open setup.log
for writing" error message.  Try running "c:\cygwin\bin\chmod a+w
setup.log setup.log.full" from a CMD prompt in "c:\cygwin\var\log" and
then re-running setup.  Also, setup.log.full should contain more detailed
error messages after a failed setup run (beware -- that file is
overwritten on every run of setup).

Igor,

I've no setup.log created in /var/log in fact what I sent you was bullshit as it is only the result of my dowload as I see it (first time I'm really examining the internal of setup sorry, it works too well). Result is that there is no file in /var/log. Can be a real clue.
