installer crash on post-instal scripts
When I try to install cygwin on windows xp, the installer hangs at around 90%, when it's running the X post install scripts.

Crap crap crap crap. My apologies, I *started* writing this email, then found a solution to the problem, then went back in to _delete_ this message, and sent it instead.

installer crash on post-instal scripts
Hi Kris, I have the same problem of installing full cygwin 1.5.12.1. It froze at 93% when installing postinstall in X11 directory. The disk size continued growing. It was 2G when I eventally decided to delete it. Then my computer crashed. It seems to me that you found a solution. Could you please post the solution? My computer is windows xp home. thanks, -Jing Kris's original message is: installer crash on post-instal scripts From: Kris Matthews krism at evilpen dot net To: cygwin at cygwin dot com Date: Wed, 17 Nov 2004 11:51:05 -0500 (EST) Subject: installer crash on post-instal scripts When I try to install cygwin on windows xp, the installer hangs at around 90%, when it's running the X post install scripts.

Re: installer crash on post-instal scripts
What worked for me: 1. Completely wipe out existing cygwin installation 2. Install all of cygwin *except* X. 3. .. Install X stuff, by itself.
