yes - again, not sure if this is your problem, but, the postinstall-texmf.sh ends up generating a number of sh.exe processes and a kepswich??? process, etc. Look in your /etc/postinsall directory, find the scripts that have not been moved to .done, and run them manually one at a time til you find out which one is causing you the problem -- then try to determine why that script is causing an issue. reid -- 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/
