Setup.exe interface and process issues

[Jay Smith]

Hi,

As long as I was ranting about mirrors, I should also mention:

   (I am on Windows95.  I don't know how to find out the version of the
   setup.exe file, but I got it on 2002-05-12 [that's pretty old, but I
   am not sure how to get a newer one].)

a) If there are multiple mirror download directories in a download 
directory on my local server:

   .../downloads/ftp%3a%2f%2farchive.progeny.com%2fcygwin
   .../downloads/ftp%3a%2f%2fcsociety-ftp.ecn.purdue.edu%2fpub%2fcygwin

   and if when I run setup.exe I select .../downloads as the local package
   directory (instead of one of the directorie below it), setup.exe will
   *lockup*.  I have to Ctrl Alt Delete to kill that one task.

b) The wording of the dialog box in which I select the local package 
directory is quite confusing and the first time I used it I had to ask 
somebody which was what.  This step could use some clarification if it has 
not already been clarified.

Thanks.

Jay
