This morning I downloaded the setup file from the Cygwin website. I started the instillation and selected all the packages to be installed.It started downloading packages from the mirror site I selected. That was 8 hours ago and the downloading now says its at 330% and increasing I thought it would finish at 100%. So is this because of the extra packages or is it just downloading the same thing over and over. And when is it suppose to finish downloading like at 400% percent or something?
I doubt anyone is trying the same, full cygwin installation is > 10Gb (only full texlive packages are ~ 1Gb and the post installation script is very slow) Best is to install only what you need I suggest you to install as start only Base categories, check that it works and to add later only the thing you really need. You will save a lot of time.
