this is difficult to do and keep installation integrity. better might be finding processes/file handles open in the cygwin install area after choosing the installation target area, and not allowing install to continue until those processes shut down. this is a classic installation issue, and if you don't have cancel and (graceful) rollback, there will be a loophole for failure. -- rich -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
