Glenn, Please review > Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html and follow the directions there to tell us about your system. Also, please attach /var/log/setup.log.full from a setup session where postinstall scripts hung (note: that file is overwritten every time you run setup, and you may need to kill the hung bash/sh processes in the task manager to allow setup to complete). Igor P.S. "flaky" is a very vague description. Concrete examples that would allow others to reproduce the problem, along with the information from the problem reporting guidelines above, would be much more helpful. -- http://cs.nyu.edu/~pechtcha/ |\ _,,,---,,_ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ZZZzz /,`.-'`' -. ;-;;,_ [EMAIL PROTECTED] |,4- ) )-,_. ,\ ( `'-' Igor Pechtchanski, Ph.D. '---''(_/--' `-'\_) fL a.k.a JaguaR-R-R-r-r-r-.-.-.
