Try a snapshot. Thanks, Brian, good idea. Alas, no luck. If anyone knows of other test suites or experiments I could run to help isolate what's going wrong, please let me know. NEW STEPS TO REPRO 1. unpacked into a fresh folder from "cygwin-inst-20050901.tar.bz2" 2. renamed my old C:\Cygwin to be sure it was unreachable 3. snapshot didn't come with a shell, so I copied bash.exe from my old installation: "GNU bash, version 3.00.16(11)-release (i686-pc-cygwin)" 4. same problem as before: perpetual "illegal operation" dialog upon trying to invoke "COMMAND.COM" 5. tried with ash.exe as well, same result (version 20040127-3) - Sean -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
