resend.

So i had cygwin installed on my system with Unix line endings.  I wanted to change to dos line endings, so i did a reinstall using the same locally downloaded package with dos line endings.  installed version was downloaded to a local directory from the xmissions site on a windows xp system.

http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-x-faq.html#q-error-font-eof <http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/cygwin-x-faq.html#q-error-font-eof>

I tried the steps laid out in your faq.

$ mount
C:\cygwin\bin on /usr/bin type system (textmode)
C:\cygwin\lib on /usr/lib type system (textmode)
C:\cygwin on / type system (textmode)
c: on /cygdrive/c type system (textmode,noumount)
p: on /cygdrive/p type system (textmode,noumount)
z: on /cygdrive/z type system (textmode,noumount)

$ umount /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/
umount: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/: No such file or directory

And then reinstalling the x11 packages from setup.exe.

I still get the same error.  Any ideas?  log files is  below
Thanks
