Juergen--Have you had successful resolution to this problem? Nick--I'm attempting to average 175 subjects, but make_average_volume returns the same error as Juergen reports. > Allocing output > MRIalloc(256,256,256): could not allocate 262144 bytes for 15547th slice I'm running freesurfer-Linux-rh9-stable-pub-v4.0.1 on SUSE Linux 9.3 2.6.11.4-21.17-smp x86_64, with a pair of Pentium 3.20 GHz processors, 4 GB of physical memory and 8 GB of swap memory. My limits are also quite liberal. > cputime unlimited > filesize unlimited > datasize unlimited > stacksize unlimited > coredumpsize 0 kbytes > memoryuse unlimited > vmemoryuse unlimited > descriptors 1024 > memorylocked 32 kbytes > maxproc 28660 I've tried to also use the alternative script posted by Doug Greve (http://www.mail-archive.com/freesurfer@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/msg06641.html). That also returns the same error. Any suggestions? Many thanks, --------- Jim Porter Graduate Student Clinical Science & Psychopathology Research University of Minnesota Nick Schmansky wrote: Juergen, Edit the 'make_average_subject' script removing (or commenting-out) the line 'limit descriptors unlimited'. You may have to do the same for 'make_average_surface' and 'make_average_volume'. Although in v4.0, these should already be commented-out.

This is now on the to-do list of the FS website. Then I bought some additional RAM and changed from OS X tiger to leopard.
