Ah right, I mis-spoke, it the cygwin.bat that did not get laid down.
Install goes to 99% complete
and hangs on /etc/postinstall/post-texmf.sh.
AHH - cancel, cancel.
I just reinstalled admin (for the fourth time) to get the above message and
while I was looking
into the log to get the "failed" messages I got yesterday - it finished and
worked! Geez, windows
and more likely the dang security/backup/antivirus/"big brother" software my
company makes me
run on this machine is what was screwing the install up.
Yesterday, I did the same thing, went to lunch, came back 90 minutes later
and it still was hung there....
Today it finished within 15 minutes ;-} on a 2.5 Ghz, 512 MB system. Now
that I see the cygwin.bat
I'm suprised - I thought they were doing some magic dos stuff in there...
