Restart net installer & keep installed packages?

Post by murraye »

On Windows XP, after running install-tl-advanced.bat to set up my preferences and starting the packages download/installation, the installation aborts. Following the instructions produced, I restart with "install-tl.log --profile installation.profile".

This aborts at some point, too. Different places each time. Last time I made it all the way through to packages with names "t*".

But each time this seems to restart the entire process from the start. Is there some way of just restarting from where it left off? Otherwise I may NEVER finish!
