Bromly or not, note that I successfully downloaded via the redhat choice
give in the setup wizard. There's no need to think about Bromly. Here's
are the last few lines of the log from the redhat download:
...

2009/04/21 00:27:19 Ending cygwin install
The install ended, but am I installed to execute Cygwin? I see nothing
on the Start->Run Programs menu about Cygwin, and nothing on the desktop.
From the top few lines:

What next?
Well, I tried something like a bromly site and it died during the download.
I then picked the redhat site, and it downloaded 15M. Both bromly and
redhat release folders looked similar. About the same number of folders.
30? Alternatives to zlib.
Don't know what a "bromly" site is but obviously lots of people are
installing Cygwin. If you are having problems we need lots more details
than "died during the download". What exactly did you see?
