Cygwin Installer can't download the rockbox packages

Hi everyone!

I'm new in Rockbox programming, but I took a little time reading the pages in the wiki (thanks for the one who wrote the Simple Guide To Compiling :D). All I want to do is some minor changes in my Rockbox build, like changing the keymap and maybe adding some patches. I have a Sansa e250.

The point is: I'm running Windows, so I've decided to download and use Cygwin. Everything went well when installing the Cygwin packages. But when I was trying to install Rockbox packages, Cygwin Installer couldn't download them. It said "Unable to get http://download.rockbox.org/cygwin//setup.ini.sig from <http://download.rockbox.org/cygwin/>". I've tried to manually download the packages and extract them, but no success.  :-[

Can someone send me a working link to Cygwin download those packages, or explain me another way to get them working? I don't want to try VMWare or CoLinux since they take a lot more disk space, and for now this is a little problem for me.. :)

Thanks everyone in advance.

I guess the Cygwin project has made some changes to their installer. It hasn't complained about missing .sig files before...

Yes they have, because yesterday I updated a package (not from the Rockbox download server) and setup.exe warned me that there was a newer version available.

brunovdbh:
So, is that rockbox download link going to be fixed?

cool_walking_:
I can't speak as to that, but here's a link to the next-to-latest version of the installer (they don't seem to offer it on their site):
