I'm setting up Cygwin. I downloaded files to one machine, and I want
to install over the network to another machine (I don't have enough
space for both the pre- and post-install files on the target machine).
However, when I run setup on the other machine, as soon as it starts
copying files, I get this error:

Fatal Error: Uncaught Exception
Thread: install
Type: St16invalid_argument
Message: URL Scheme not registered!

I Googled for previous information about this. It seems that I needed
to move the setup.ini file aside. I tried this, but that wipes out the
list of packages when I re-run setup.exe. What gives? Thanks in
advance for any help.
