True. But I did not find anything else better and the instructions on that site jibed with what I read on the cygwin mailing list over the years. That's why I went with it. > >>I restarted Windows 7 (64bit) in safe mode (no networking) and opened >>a command prompt where I executed: >> >>cd \cygwin\bin >>dash >>PATH=. >>rebaseall -v >> >>I got the following error: >> >>rebaseall: only ash or dash processes are allowed during rebasing >> Exit all Cygwin processes and stop all Cygwin services. >> Execute ash (or dash) from Start/Run... or a cmd or command window. >> Execute '/bin/rebaseall' from ash (or dash). >> >>I get the same error from a regular Windows session (with sshd >>stopped, and no other cygwin processes running - as far as I can see). >> >>Are there some other Cygwing processes running?

After all I was certain I did not start any cygwin process. And in there I found aspell -- it was started during Windows Emacs startup. I use Emacs to write down notes during debugging. rebaseall works as advertised. > > cgf > Mirko -- 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
