protofuse Posted November 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 hello phil, following the one I always followed : http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=windows_toolchain_quickstart Small Device C Compiler, no problem! but MSYS gives that: C:\msys\1.0\postinstall>..\bin\sh.exe pi.sh 0 [main] us 0 init_cheap: VirtualAlloc pointer is null, Win32 error 487 AllocationBase 0x0, BaseAddress 0x71110000, RegionSize 0x180000, State 0x10000 C:\msys\1.0\bin\sh.exe: *** Couldn't reserve space for cygwin's heap, Win32 error 0 C:\msys\1.0\postinstall>pause Appuyez sur une touche pour continuer... grrr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philetaylor Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 Ah that explains it, I didn't install MSYS, I just copied it from another PC! Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
protofuse Posted November 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 Ah that explains it, I didn't install MSYS, I just copied it from another PC! Phil ok, so your advice could be to copy that from another pc too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philetaylor Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 I would certainly try it... I take it you are installing MSYS-1.0.11 and not 1.0.10??? Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
protofuse Posted November 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 ok works fine with 1.0.10 it should be changed here: http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/windows_toolchain_quickstart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
protofuse Posted November 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 indeed: http://www.midibox.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=windows_toolchain_core there is the correct one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
