ok, any info about the topic?


i just want to know what exaclty do the installer of cygwin to avoid any problem.

is enough with copying the whole directory?



No. It also runs, at least, post install scripts, creates mount points, etc.
If you want to know the details of what "setup.exe" does, you should look at
the code. See <http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin-apps/setup.html>. If you're
just interested in discussion on how to install without "setup.exe", you can
browse the archives. The subject comes up now and then and various folks
have indulged the poster on occasion with suggestions and so forth.



thanks a lot. i'll take a look.
