How to select a CRAN mirror in R

by

You should either get a window with a list of repositories or a text menu with some options. But if that is not appearing, you can always specify the mirror from where to download the packages yourself by using repos parameter. By doing that, R will not ask you anymore about the repository. Example:

install.packages('RMySQL', repos="http://cran.us.r-project.org")

Here you have a list of mirrors for R.
