If you are talking about downloading from the redwire mirror site and
only the redwire mirror site there is no reason to tack on a "redhat"
there anywhere.  If you are still on the kick of downloading Red Hat
packages from the Red Hat site then please go away.

In any event, if you really did use one of our mirrors and you really did
choose "Install" rather than "Download" (a fact which is inexplicably
hard to determine) then please send the contents of your setup.full.log
file here as an attachment so that we can see what's going on.
