I tried unnder R 2.9.0 and R 2.8.1. Both versions failed to install 'systemfit'. I downloaded file 'systemfit_1[1].0-8.zip' to install the package. I am using Windows 2000 service pack 4. The error message is: Error in gzfile(file, "r") : cannot open the connection In addition: Warning message: In gzfile(file, "r") : cannot open compressed file 'systemfit_1[1].0-8/DESCRIPTION', probable reason 'No such file or directory' Thanks! [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
