As for native Windows, even a Cygwin version is still somewhat far away. There are some bizarre problems - you can see the sage-windows list for some, though not all, of them.

The VirtualBox instructions were recently updated, though. Can you check out the Windows download page and the new install instructions to see if this helps? And can you give a link to the VMWare instructions you see? It's possible we still have to get rid of some old instructions on the mirrors.

Edit:

  • Looks like we should still organize the pages better, or ask the mirrors to update. Another random one I tried didn't even have the newest instructions.
  • The VirtualBox instructions should be ok - see this sage-devel thread, for example. At least this particular mirror has accurate instructions.
