Hello Larry, Thank you for your reply.
I have read (and reread) the mentioned post and all following posts. The proposed solution is to create a local mirror, and let it be included into the list of available mirrors during execution of Cygwin setup.exe I would like to have a setup.exe that allows the installer to install all packages from the local mirror only and not let the installer choose which packages to install (as is done with Cygwin setup.exe). Another solution would be to create my own setup.exe, if I do know what Cygwin setup.exe does. Can you provide that information ?
