Hi,

We have a production system which has had cygwin on for about 2 years with 
no problems on Thursday I tried to add some extra packages and encountered 
a number of problems.  setup.exe would at various deferent points fail due 
to insufficient space (on a disk which widows claimed had 10Gb free) after 
several long days and nights I have an almost working install I did this by:
1. running setup with deinstall.
2. deleting everything I could find that belonged to cygwin.
3. using an ftp client to down load the latest release.
4. running setup to do a full install from the local files.

This appeared to work however cygwin now claims that 2 of the 3 local 
drives are full, it works fine provided you don't need to write to the 
disks:

Bellow is a df -h from cygwin and a psinfo from a dos window.

Anyone any ideas.
