I lost that argument. Apparently some 64-bit systems can't run 32-bit applications. I wanted to just have one setup with a check box determining which version to install. That idea was vehemently rejected. However, this should work (I haven't tried lately): .\setup-x86 --arch=x86_64 Assuming you aren't part of the .001% who can't run x86 executables. cgf -- 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
