Hi all,

I'm trying to install the 64-bit version of cygwin published in the 
snapshots directory, but due to the lack of any kind of documentation or 
information how to set it up I'm not able to manage that. I'm running 
Windows XP x64 with 32-bit cygwin installed that machine. As far as I 
understood up to now I have to cross-compile the cygwin-src directory 
(I'm using 2005-Dec-07) applying the well known "configure, make, make 
install"-procedure. Unfortunately, the configure-script stops with an 
error telling me that it cannot determine the build type. Please tell me 
what I'm doing wrong and how to proceed.

Thanx in advance
Hans
