Hi,
I am happy to be able to run B20 on my office computer ! While B19 refused
to run, now B20 runs pretty well as far as I can tell.
There is perhaps some delay problem in getting the first Bash prompt. It
took 50 seconds for the $ prompt to appear after I clicked on the CYGNUS icon.
Well, I wish I could show you a test case but I think you guys cannot
repeat the test on your machine anyway since the problem is likely
machine/installation dependent.
I do have something to show you, however, in the spirit of software
testing. I ran cygcheck as recommended and here is the output with timing
informarion. It took 7 minutes to complete cygcheck. Here is the output
of cygcheck:

Unless you *really* need them, get rid if the network drives in your path.
We found it made things horribly slow, especially if you mistype a command.
Could be our rather badly configured network, though.
