What version? Please, always include the version you are running in fault
reports.

Again, please be specific. 'Latest' is not a version, as we release quite a
few snapshots. FYI the current released setup, 2.249.2.4 is most likely the
same as the most recent snapshot you where testing with. I say most likely
because based on the info you have provided, I cannot say for sure.

That error was turning up inappropriately at onepoint, but we have corrected
that for all routine use. It may still turn up for 'reinstall' of the 'all'
category however. If thats not what you are doing, and you are running
2.249.2.4 then none of the mirrors you selected carry the actual file you
are trying to download. This may be due to incomplete syncronisation, or a
ini file with incorrect information in it.

Look in /var/log/setup.log and setup.log.full and the failed download should
be listed.
