Same place as you "Install from Internet".  Just choose "Download from 
Internet" in setup.  Once it's done, rerun it and choose "Install from
Local Directory".  This is the easiest way to do what you're asking, 
though I don't know if it addresses your problem.  It just really splits
the "Install from Internet" into two steps.  You might try using "wget"
for a fairly reliable site to download the full distribution and then 
install via setup and the "Install from Local Directory" option.

Subject: Can I download everything and install from local files?


Hi,
I tried several times to install cygwin + xfree86 through the internet. It
always hangs at one point or another. I noticed the 'install from local
file' option. I could not find a site where I can download the whole
'distribution'.
I would like to download all the files I need to install cygwin + xfree86
before I start my install.
Where can I find those files? Is there some package that contains
everything?

Thanks in advance
Thomas
