I think I'm going crazy...
When I try ton stall cygwin on my machine here (XEON 3200 with 3 GB of RAM)
the installation seems to work perfectly...
But the etc directory stays empty, no passwd file is created, there is no
/home....
Well, I have checked the mailing list and changed the permissions of
c:\cygwin so that absolutely everybody now has full rights on it...
Even this showed no effect when reinstalling cygwin...
/etc stays empty apart from termcap
