Cannot install cygwin on Win XP on VirtualBox


Hi,

I'm running Win XP on VirtualBox on an Ubuntu machine. I'm trying to
install the latest cygwin version (http://cygwin.com/setup.exe). I
started the installation and selected 'Install from Internet'. Then, I
expected to see a list of mirrors but it was empty. If I try the exact
same thing from a real Windows XP machine, everything works fine.

I also tried to download the cygwin packages and do an offline
installation, but after I selected the packages and clicked 'Finish',
the installation exited without doing anything.

Is it a known bug? Any workaround?

Thanks,
Erez
