Just installed the snapshot (a valid but non-released build) (didn't know what one was before!!) . It's easy peasy; download from snapshot http://cygwin.com/snapshots/ cygwin-inst-2004*.tar.bz2 bunzip2 cygwin-inst-20040122.tar.bz2 gives you cygwin-inst-20040122.tar I then used Winzip to install files in c:\cygwin Is there a script or tool for installing snapshots??
