Hello,
Can anyone explain the following strange thing :
When installing Cygwin (downloaded from ftp.funet.fi on 08/23/2002) on a
NTFS partition (W2000 box), the full release (all packages installed)
occupies about 700+ MO.
When installing it on a FAT16 partition (W98 box), the same full
release uses 1.8+ GO !
I need to install the full release in less than 1 GO.
How can I do that ?
Thanks in advance for any help or suggestion,
Pierre
