It is indeed somewhat complicated. Changes are needed in first-setup.sh
as well as in mtx-update.lua. To complicate matters, one of the first
things that happens in first-setup.sh is to retrieve a fresh and
unaltered mtx-update.lua. My naïve recipe follows:
1. change contextgarden.net to metatex.org on line 99 of first-setup.sh
2. run once, which fails, but updates mtx-update.lua
3. comment out line 99 of first-setup.sh, to prevent further updates of
scripts
4. change line 534 of mtx-update.lua to contain metatex.org instead of
contextgarden.net
run first-update.sh again, this time hopfully with success.
May I suggest that the version of mtx-update.lua that can be retrieved
from metatex.org contains references to that server and not
contextgarden.net. I realize that then it is no longer a mirror, but on
the other hand it may be useful when contextgarden is down.
One of these days the minimals repository will be moved to the machine
that runs the garden. After that we will change the scripts to find an
active mirror. (if you do have the basic bin dir alrwady you can use
another mirror with --server=...)
