When I run the Cygwin setup program, the second screen titled "Choose a
download source" has 3 radio buttons. More often than not I select the one

configure, and then make. All went smoothly until this:

I'm looking for a convenient place to cross-compile a Linux Kernel

$ whoami
I get a result immediately.
However, if I do this:

2 separate questions about customizing the list of mirror URLs in the cygwin

I'm having a problem building an app which #includes . It
depends on some #defines which are inside a #if (_WIN32_WINNT >= 0x0403 ..
