--xHFwDpU9dbj6ez1V Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi, all -- I am having a terrible time trying to install cygwin on our new Acer AspireOne netbook (Win XP SP3 @ 1G). I have tried downloading to a local directory (my usual preference), installing from the 'net, and -- most interestingly, to me -- installing from a copied download tree from another laptop whose installation went exactly as expected. In the two download cases I get "doanload incomplete; retry?" right at the end but haven't been able to figure out why. In the installation from the local copy cases I get a short list of mostly-empty categories, which I figure most definitely will not give me the right install. Trying to install from the 'net gives me more packages in more categories, but is still missing some interesting ones -- like tar, for instance, being set to "skip" by default (although perhaps because it wasn't listed in the first run from the local copy or smoe such). What do I need to do to get back to being able to install Cygwin? This is one error that has certainly never occurred for me before! TIA & HAND :-D --=20 David T-G See http://justpickone.org/davidtg/email/ See http://justpickone.org/davidtg/tofu.txt --xHFwDpU9dbj6ez1V Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFK8PrZGb7uCXufRwARAhwwAJ99o0MAtY2/rULqLf47W22pYmyfFwCeIS8d xEohoNFRNd/FAfvVUeVUEqc= =dRYa -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --xHFwDpU9dbj6ez1V--
