Nope.  I said âchmod 666 /var/log/setup.logâ, and setup.exe still isnât writing anything new to it.

(That resulted in 606 permissions, for some reason.  I have no idea why I effectively have an 0070 umask on this system, even though âumaskâ from the normal Cygwin terminal says 0022.)

Then, since I thought I remembered that setup.exe had a mode where it wrote debugging stuff to stdout/stderr, I tried running âsetup-x86_64.exe -vBâ from a dash admin shell, but got nothing on the console.
