Hi,
  I have a slow internet connection at home and now I want to install cygwin 
on it. Based on my passed experience, the only way I can do a fresh install 
is to download setup.exe, run it, configure what packages I want and it will 
download the packages. This does not work for me this time.

  I wonder if I can do the download part at work with broadband, save the 
downloaded into some portable drive and take the drive home to complete the 
installation?

  I do not think there is such option on the setup.exe GUI, but want to know 
if there is some way.

Thanks.
