Hello,
I support an internal development group and I need to have a number of
people install and use cygwin.
I've had more then a few problems with "Human Factors Problems"
- Missed packages that should have been installed but where not...
- Wrong versions installed
- Newer versions - that caused problems... [I have not fixed yet]
- Package not present on the mirror they choose
- Mirror they choose is not reachable right now for some reason
In a perfect world this is what I'd like to have:
some 'un-attended install process'
a simple text file listing the packages & versions to install.
I want to specify the packages - not them.
a CDROM or DVD with the packages already present.
I would then run "SETUP.EXE" program with options that says:
The list of packages to install is on the CDROM.
The packages are on the CDROM located in drive X
Install CYGWIN in directory Y.
I've download the SETUP.EXE source codes... and looking through it,
I don't see an command line option that would let me do that. {Hmm, seems
the two options that exist, -h and -q don't seem to do anything anyway}
Any suggestions?
-Duane.
