I seem= to remember that sometimes I could get a complete download by using a mirr= or that was far away (for me, Europe or Australia).

Other things one might try: - Separate downloading and installing. - Download only one package at a time. Again, YMMV. Good luck. - Barry Disclaimer: Statements made herein are not made on behalf of NIAID. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
