I don't know of a way short of hacking the source.

What's the mirror you're trying to use? Won't Rockbox work on the
latest Cygwin 1.5 from one of the official mirrors (which should all
have setup-legacy.ini)?

Andy

I'm trying to use http://download.rockbox.org/cygwin/.  As for the latest 1=
.5, I thought based on what Greg said earlier that the latest 1.5 was the s=
etup-legacy he linked to?  I'm now trying to get around this by manually ex=
tracting the packages from the mirror.  Call it a patchwork quilt approach =
but if it works I won't complain as I don't know any other way to do it.

Hussein.
