There is only one Swedish mirror: ftp.sunet.se. It has a recent version of setup.ini. Mirrors are not supposed to keep copies of setup.exe and, in fact, I don't see one at that site. >The installation from funet.fi couldn't complete, and later I got a popup >telling me that it wasn't anymore an official cygwin mirror (?) What's puzzling about that? That is setup.exe doing you the favor of telling you that the mirror is out of date. >All the others I tried (heanet.ie, Dresden, Karlsruhe, Switzerland, >France...) tell me: > > Unable to get setup.ini > >Some known problems? No, of course not. It does sound like possibly you haven't downloaded the most recent version of setup.exe from http://cygwin.com/ though. Btw, the empty mirrors list would undoubtedly be some kind of network problem. setup.exe does a simple http retrieval to download the mirror list. cgf -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
