I am trying to load the standalone but have ran into a problem.

Platform: cygwin on Windows XP

Here is what I did to try to get it all loaded and setup:

#1 rsync -av rsync://contextgarden.net/minimals/setup/first-setup.sh . sh ./first-setup.sh || exit 3

The following files are loaded: receiving incremental file list bin/ bin/cygiconv-2.dll bin/cygwin1.dll bin/kpathsea620.dll bin/lua52.dll bin/luatex.dll bin/mtx-update.lua bin/mtxrun.dll bin/mtxrun.exe bin/mtxrun.lua bin/rsync.exe bin/texlua.exe

The above only populated /opt/context/bin

...

Re: When you want to use context, you need to initialize the tree by typing: . /opt/context/tex/setuptex

NOTE: there is no /opt/context/!! It doesn't get loaded.

I mean there is no /opt/context/tex so no /opt/context/tex/setuptex..

...

Any ideas of what is wrong? Any work around to get the proper tex directory contents?

Any suggestions are apprecaited.

can you run ./firstsetup ?

../firstsetup.sh was ran and it was first setup that created and populated the bin directory. But nothing was done for a tex directory.

then you need to figure out why it failed ... messages and so ... maybe an rsync issue (you can try to add prints to mtx-update.lua (but then also comment the first rsync in firstsetup so that it doesn't get overwritten)

Yes I am trying to find out. That's why I sent the message in the first place. I will endeaver to find out more inforation. Is there a way to download a three without using rsync? Perhaps a tarball or other archive format? Regards
