Just run setup.exe and select "download from internet", then use the resulting files and directories to install from - burn it onto a CD, whatever.
Your mail isn't very clear - if windows isn't connected to the internet how are you going to download the files in the first place? I think you meant to mention you are using another OS for the internet? I think the simplest answer is just connect windows to the internet - it doesn't hurt, at least for half an hour or so... --------------------------------- Q-Games, Dylan Cuthbert. http://www.q-games.com/personal/utils ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jens Haug" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, February 15, 2002 11:16 PM Subject: offline installation Hi, I'd like to install Cygwin, but I don't have internet access from my Windows System. Ok, I'll be honest, I don't *want* to have any network connection when running windows. So I'd like to install Cygwin offline. I was looking for information on which Files I have to download, where to place them, whether to unpack them or not, and so on. I am familiar with Linux (just in case this helps). I would like to run XFree86 - this might give you an idea of which packages I'll need. Can you please help me here?
