Dear Einstein Toolkit Support Team,

I hope this message finds you well.

 My name is Pakhlavon Yovkochev, and I am a PhD student in astrophysics at
the *Institute of Fundamental and Applied Research* in Tashkent,
Uzbekistan. I am currently trying to install and learn how to use the
Einstein Toolkit, as I plan to use it for modeling magnetic fields around
black holes in my research.

I am currently trying to set up the Einstein Toolkit on my system (Ubuntu,
running via WSL2). However, I’ve encountered some issues during the process
and would greatly appreciate your assistance.
Steps I followed:

   1.

   Cloned the CRL repository:

   git clone https://github.com/gridaphobe/CRL.gitcd CRL

   2.

   Attempted to run:

   ./GetComponents --parallel
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gridaphobe/CRL/main/einsteintoolkit.th

   But I received the following error:

   Error: Couldn't download url
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gridaphobe/CRL/main/einsteintoolkit.th
correctly

   3.

   I confirmed that the file einsteintoolkit.th does not exist at that URL
   (returns 404). I also tried other versions, like ET_2024_05, but still
   encountered problems initially.
   4.

   I then tried downloading the .th file directly using wget, but again
   received:

   ERROR 404: Not Found.

   5.

   Additionally, when I created an empty einsteintoolkit.th file and ran:

   ./GetComponents --parallel einsteintoolkit.th

   I received:

   0 components checked out successfully.


My Question:

Could you point me to the correct and currently supported .th file URL for
the latest stable Einstein Toolkit release?
Also, is there any change in the recommended installation procedure or
repository structure that I should be aware of?

Thank you very much in advance for your time and support.

Best regards,
*Pakhlavon Yovkochev*
