I've seen this also, most recently when installing Cygwin on my laptop. My guess (and it's pure speculation) is that it's some sort of limitation on size of the download. The workaround (well, it worked for me) was to select fewer packages to install and build up your installed system piecemeal. That took a bit longer, but seemed to work out the same in the end. I have no idea if it's a problem with setup or simply a limitation set at your chosen download site, nor even how to tell which it might be. -- Archie -- Archie Warnock Internet: warnock AT awcubed DOT com -- A/WWW Enterprises http://www.awcubed.com -- As a matter of fact, I _do_ speak for my employer. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
