Installation on CD-Rom, Copying a whole installation

[Andrew Markebo]

| - if all this is not possible, is there anybody out there who has written a 
| nice installation-skript that installs xfree after cygwin is installed (this 
| should not be too difficult for the average pupil) and can be edited to 
| install some software too? If not, I will probably try to write one myself, 
| but of course I´m not interested in reinventing the wheel...

The normal Xfree installation is done through a script  
        [your fav. mirror]/cygwin/xfree/binaries/4.2.0/Xinstall.sh

What to do I think is like throw a selection of the contents (and
unpacked extract.exe.gz) of
        [your fav. mirror]/cygwin/xfree/binaries/4.2.0/ 
and I think the students will survive running Xinstall.sh from there in
their bash window..
