His problem is the same as mine, various commands like '[' segfault bash (which naturally hoses the startup scripts during install). No BLODA, these are running nothing but Windows (Datacenter 2008 64-bit, with the Amazon EC2Config installed but that's it), and have turned DEP off (and setting compatibility mode on setup.exe). It works in 32-bit 2008 AMIs fine. I just tried running rebaseall (in c:\cygwin\bin, ash, PATH=. rebaseall -v) and it rebases stuff, but afterwards scripts still segfault. The segfault stack dump is as follows: Exception: STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION at eip=76EF930A eax=00000000 ebx=FFFFFFE6 ecx=00000000 edx=00000000 esi=FFFFFFFF edi=0027C6E8 ebp=61226084 esp=0027C69C program=C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe, pid 2224, thread main cs=0023 ds=002B es=002B fs=0053 gs=002B ss=002B Stack trace: Frame Function Args End of stack trace Thanks, Ernest -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
