It seems I spoke too soon, now it setup.exe hangs on the
/etc/postinstall/00ash.sh script. The installation seems incomplete. For
example, the "ls" command doesn't work.
So it seems that whatever was going on with the preinstall scripts is
also happening w/ th postinstall scripts, but now I don't have a
functioning environment in which to run them by hand :-(

Eric
