I have run into this problem the Cygwin install many times and wish to know if I am doing something wrong or if there is a bug of some kind.
The Problem: I download the the setup.exe and run it. I choose either the "Install from internet" or the "Download without installing" options, pick a site, and am then presented with the package list. I then proceed to spend 15-20 minutes going through the packages I want. Then when it I click Next to begin downloading, I get a Download Incomplete or Installation Incomplete message and asks if I want to try again. I say Yes, pick the same site, and then it complains about not being able to download the setup.ini file I believe. Thus I've wasted about half an hour of time. My only solution is to download everything (which I don't really want to do) and then do a "Install from Local Directory". This has been happening for at least the past year and a half and has occurred on several computers that I've attempted to install on. I'm very frustrated with this procedure. Either I'm really doing something wrong or there's a very annoying bug that I'm surprised hasn't been noticed and fixed. Can someone enlighten me to what may be the problem. ___________________________________________________________________ Get Juno Platinum for as low as $4.97/month!
