Yes. And setup will try all 4 mirrors, and check all 4 folders for
existing downloads.

No. Instead select *all* the mirrors you would like to use.

I recently changed from setup version 2.125.2.10 to
2.194.2.24.  Now, whenever I download from a mirror,
it creates a new folder for that mirror.  Before, all
mirrors used a common 'contrib' and 'latest'
directory.  Since not all mirrors are always
up-to-date, I shuffle through several.  A friend of
mine said that he's seen similar problems when using
wget.  Is there a way to tell it to use the common
folders, perhaps through command line options? 
Thanks.
