<p>How exactly are you installing from the local copy?</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Here is what I do</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Inside the rsynced copy of the tlnet structure</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I run the copy of the installer found there.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>The installation material is automatically detected as being in a relative folder (relative to the location of install-tl-advanced.bat) and it automatically uses the local one.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Have you instead unzipped the rsynced copy of</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>install-tl.zip</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>and is running the installer from the generated folder? Because that will never pick up the local installation folder.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Go back to the root of the rsynced copy of tlnet, and run the copy of the installer that is right there. It should be the same as in the zip file anyway.<br>

<div>So, having restarted the installation (successfully, by eschewing the .bat file) I now see the reason for the slowth — the installer is installing from
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://anorien.csc.warwick.ac.uk">http://anorien.csc.warwick.ac.uk</a> rather than from the local repository. I don't
<i>think</i> that I am installing using a different methodology to previous years, so what am I doing wrong and how should I tell the installer to use my local repository ?<br>
