Yes, that's the problem. There are non ash cygwin processes still running.
See the output of ps x. There must only be 2 processes:
/usr/bin/ash
/usr/bin/ps
Kill all other.
rebaseall: only ash processes are allowed during rebasing
Exit all Cygwin processes and stop all Cygwin services.
Execute ash from Start/Run... or a cmd or command window.
Execute '/bin/rebaseall' from ash.
exit 2
