Problem with setup.exe - C:\cygwin\bin\* isn't created


Hello all,

I hope you can help me, I'm really having problems to install cygwin.

My OS is Win2k SP 2. I have downloaded the latest version of setup.exe
(2.510.2.2) and stored it into C:\cyginstall.
I started the installation with administrator rights. Then I went through
the installation choosing:

- Installation from Internet
- C:\cygwin as root path
- Install for all users
- Textfile type: Unix/binary
- Internet Connection: Direct Connection
- A mirror near to me: http://linux.rz.tuhr-uni-bochum.de
- I did not change the package settings and wanted to make a default
installation

The download process worked well an the installation began. After the
installation I decided to add a desktop icon and double clicked on it.
The dos box told me that it can't change the directory und can't find
bash.exe :(, so I looked into the C:\cygwin directory.

The only installed directories are: etc, lib, sbin, usr, var. And the files:
cygwin.bat and cygwin.ico. There is no bin directory!
The setup.log file is full of the complaining listed below (... means that
the message above appears more than once).

I hope you can help me. Many thanks in advance!

Jean-Pierre
