The cygcheck is attached now. Problem still exists.
( During running cygcheck there appeared 2 error messages:
$ cygcheck -s -v -r> cygcheck.out
cygcheck: dump_sysinfo: GetVolumeInformation() for drive J: failed: 5
cygcheck: dump_sysinfo: GetVolumeInformation() for drive Z: failed: 53
J: is some special drive, for software installations. I cannot access it.
Z: is a network mount, the target pc was turned off )
Thanks. A quick look turned up this:
o Your '/etc/passwd' (and probably '/etc/group') need to be regenerated.
My guess is that '/etc/postinstall/passwd-grp.sh' didn't run (or run
properly). You should try re-running it.
This is probably not the source of the problem but it's something you should
look into anyway. It's worth checking "/var/log/setup*" for any complaints
as well, in case this all come back to an installation issue.
My best guess? Could be <http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#BLODA>.
