Subject: newsetup does nothing

Dudes,

I just wiped my windows partition of all traces of its old cygwin
installation (including registry) so I could install 1.1.

With the setup.exe I just downloaded, nothing happens once it gets to the
install stage. After I tell it to use the default c:\cygwin root and
internet install, it just reports:

-=-=-=-=-
Connecting to ftp site...Done.
Creating the uninstall file...Done.

Installation took 24 seconds.
-=-=-=-=-

and setup.log contains just the uninstall line.

oldsetup.exe gets further, but not much:
-=-=-=-=-=-

[repeat ad nauseam]

and it just keeps failing to download.

Obviously I can download all the .tar.gz's by hand, but still...
