It just hangs there on the download screen saying "Downloading... setup.bz2 Connecting... Progress:" With no progress. Then a window comes up. When I just tried it now it said: "Internet Error" in the title and "550 /cygwin/setup.bz2: Not a directory" in the message. The original setup window still hangs there after I click "OK". (Its been hanging there the whole time I have been typing this) and this second a second window poped up with "550 /cygwin/setup.ini: Not a directory" followed by "Cygwin Setup: Unable to get setup.ini from "ftp://ftp.easynet.be/cygwin>". I try another one and get a similar response (am trying again now). The date on the log file is a month old though so I am wondering if it is writing anything now or if the text there is from when I started trying to install it. >Deleting the log and trying again does not reproduce the log. I run setup from c:\download and look for the log file in c:\cygwin\var\log. This sounds strange. Something's not quite right there. You should be getting a new log every time you run. Try looking around for it. Maybe it's not ending up where it's expected. As far as the setup.[ini|bz2] goes, this still sounds like a networking problem to me. Why don't you try to grab the file yourself through your browser and see if it's successful. I'm guessing you'll have the same problem. >It won't help me with updates, but I still should have my original installation on another drive from before my upgrade to XP. I wonder if I can get that going though it would be nice to be able to get pudates and new packages. Hm, this may be part of your problem.
