One other thing: I was updating a previous Cygwin installation. From a
quick spot-check it seems that the installer didn't update anything: for
example gcc still says it's version 3.3.3-1 even though the installer
reports that the most recent version is 3.4.4-1. I also noticed that
setup.log is dated 6/21/2004 and has no entries in it newer than that
date.
All of this leads me to suspect that the installer didn't update
anything...
You could just be right there. From your cygcheck:
c: hd NTFS 53348Mb 99% CP CS UN PA FC IBM_PRELOAD
Looks like your C drive is full!

I had about 750MB free on c:. I just did a bunch of archiving and
deleting and now there is 6.29GB free. The install still hangs at
exactly the same place. As far as I can tell, it tries to run the
preremove script *before* it does any installing - the only other thing
it seems to do is check the MD5s on the packages...

I was able to get setup.exe unstuck by cd'ing to /etc/preremove, running
automake-devel.sh and then deleting it. I had to do this with about
three other scripts in this directory before setup.exe would move on to
the next phase. It's now happily installing all the selected packages.
I'm not sure what was going on with the offending scripts...

Eric
