Installing cygwin by manually copying c:\cygwin to another machine


Hello,

I am looking for a quick and easy way to install cygwin on other computers so
that it contains exactly the packages that i need,  other customisations and
 other programs built manually.

In order to do that, I have simply zipped the entire c:\cygwin directory ,
put it on a cd,  and unzipped it on the other computer.

Unfortunately, this does not seem to be enough  ( the cygwin simply doesn't
run ).

My question is:  what are the settings required by cygwin to operate
normally?   (  i guess it needs some environment variables and/or
registry settings ).

Cheers,
Adrian Maier
