I installed Cygwin B20.1. All seems to work exept I get the following
message if I try to execute any configure-script. I changed correctly to
the working directory. Under Linux I didn't have this problem. chmod
doesn't help.
BASH.EXE-2.02$ ./configure
BASH.EXE: ./configure: No such file or directory
Please help.

Martin

That's because configure scripts are written to expect /bin/sh to exist.
A workaround that always works:
  
  $ CONFIG_SHELL=bash bash ./configure [... options to configure ...]

You can substitute "sh" for "bash" above, and should run faster then.
