If you just want to have '/' point to 'c:\cygwin' instead of
'c:\cygwin\download', just remount your mounts to point there. '/',
'/usr/bin', and '/usr/lib' are the ones you're concerned with. So
do:
mount -b -s -f C:/cygwin /
mount -b -s -f C:/cygwin/bin /usr/bin
mount -b -s -f C:/cygwin/lib /usr/lib
If you have any Cygwin services running, I recommend stopping them, doing
the above, and restarting them.
As for what you did to setup to make it use your download directory as your
root install directory, you must have specified it as such in the 3rd
page of the install process. You should type this directory into the 4th
page where it asks for the local package directory only. Actually, if you
find the above 'mount' commands above too difficult to follow/do, you can
rerun setup and simply reset your root directory to be 'c:\cygwin'. It w
ill make the above mount changes for you as a result.
