How to configure cygwin setup to proceed without warning notification popup

[thealmostrealmccoy]

When cygwin retrieves the setup information from the list of servers, it pops up a message if it is unable to do so for a particular server. It does not proceed until the user has clicked ok on this message.

Is it possible to configure the set up to proceed without the notification?

I turned on the quiet mode option when I invoked the setup application but it does not appear to work. I still get the notification message

Thanks

I don't understand -- if you have a mirror selected that cannot be
reached why can't you just unselect that mirror in the list?

Before cygwin begins the download of set up files, it displays the list of obsolete mirror sites. I unselected these sites before proceeding with the download.

However these messages(mentioned in previous post) appear when the download is in progress. I have to click ok for all the messages before it proceeds.

I will update to the latest version of the setup application and try again.
