Hi:
I just tried to install Cygwin on an HP Pavilion running Windows XP Media
Center Edition (which I think is only different in having a some media
programs preloaded). After I installed Cygwin I tried to run (in this order)
the cygwin.bat batch file, ash.exe, bash.exe, and Run.exe. None opened; I
just got a generic dialog box from Windows saying that there was [A problem
running this program. Reinstallation may solve this problem.] (I
paraphrase). I tried that. Tried running random .exe files from the bin
directory.
After looking around at the FAQ, I checked out the setup.txt log; all I
found out of the ordinary was a series of pairs of lines along this format:
2007/09/10 22:25:26 running: C:\Cygwin\\bin\bash.exe -c
/etc/postinstall/00ash.sh
2007/09/10 22:25:26 abnormal exit: exit code=-1073741515
Are .sh files the post-install scripts that the install guide mentions? What
error does the exit code -1073741515 indicate?
Oh, and just noticing the beginning of the log, with a series of failed
fopen() calls; I don't think that would be a problem (I was installing from
directory), but I really have no idea.
How can I get Cygwin running on my system?
Thanks a lot,
