Yes, I chose download. I had trouble with an earlier attempt a few days
ago installing from the internet. So, can I proceed with what I have?

That's not a "redhat choice". It's the redwire mirror.
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:
2009/04/20 20:59:06 Starting cygwin install, version 2.573.2.3

What next?
If you don't see anything on the desktop it sounds like you chose the "Download"
rather than the "Install" selection in setup.exe.
