just restored my 3GS for an issue regarding it taking forever to sync contacts.

I restored the device, ran blackra1n, installed cydia, and when i went to go find SBSettings, it wasnt there.

further digging around pointed me to look in Bigboss Repo inside cydia (one of the most important ones) and its completely empty.

any ideas whats going on here with this repo?
http://apt.bigboss.us.com/repofiles/cydia/

its the only repo in cydia thats showing empty

im sort of dead in the water without it.

my only other idea is to restore, rain again, and see of that resolves it?

The repo is probably down, or Cydia didn't load it up correctly.

Repo's go up and down all the time.

You could do a reboot, then try letting Cydia load up again.

If it is still empty, check it tomorrow.

bigboss was down for me too yesterday, but for only about half an hour.
best thing is to just wait,
