Dear all, I am trying to install Root 4.01/04 from source on Windows XP running the latest version of cygwin. I have followed axel's instructions from http://www.muenster.de/~naumana/win32gcc.html, stating: cd /cygdrive/c tar xzvf /cygdrive/c/install/root....tar.gz cd root export ROOTSYS=$PWD ./configure win32gcc --build=debug make make map \ls bin/*.dll bin/*.exe | rebaseall -T - all goes well until the last command, where I recive: ReBaseImage (/usr/bin/cygexpat-0.dll) failed with last error = 6 I ignore this and continue, defining my enviromental parameters in .bash_profile by adding: export PATH=$PATH:/c/WINDOWS/system32:/c/WINDOWS # # ROOT # export ROOTSYS='c:\root' # must be in DOS format (change path!) export PATH=`cygpath -u $ROOTSYS`/bin:$PATH I run startx followed by root. The splash screen appears, then the Xterm freezes and I recieve: $ root 4 [main] ? 2232 cygheap_fixup_in_child: Couldn't reserve 9891540 bytes of space for cygwin's heap (0x61790000 <0xA10000>) in child, Win32 error 487 c:\root\bin\root_exe.exe (2232): *** m.AllocationBase 0x613C0000, m.BaseAddress 0x61790000, m.RegionSize 0x19000, m.State 0x1000 Any ideas? Kind Regards, Richard White
