I'd like to simply transfer my cygwin64/ directory from my old Thinkpad to my new Thinkpad, both running Win 10 x64 Pro. E.g., I would put my old c:/cygwin64/ onto a flash SSD USB drive e:/ . cd c:/ tar cfp - cygwin64 > e:/cygwin64.tar & Then e:/cygwin64.tar would be mounted on my new computer.
I'm assuming that there is not actual install required, e.g., having to run setup-x86_64.exe first on the new computer? -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
