1st: A fresh cygwin install will most likely not work OOTB, it will fail with fork errors. You need to do a rebaseall once with no services and processes running, only from dash 2nd: after the rebase database is initialized, a fresh parrot install will need to add /bin/cygparrot*.dll to be added to the rebase db (parrot specific, but for --gen-parrot do it in rakudo) ls /usr/bin/cygparrot-*.dll > dll.lst rebaseall -T dll.lst 3rd: after building rakudo, only these steps are needed: a) do not copy the parrot dll over (even twice)! add it to the PATH instead. you will get more fork errors with such a big dll being duplicated in memory. b) rebase the new perl6 and nqp dll's: ls dynext/*.dll nqp/dynext/*.dll > dll.lst rebaseall -T dll.lst This is only needed for testing. Better is to do no testing with the temp. install, because it will pollute the rebase db with some big dll's. windows 32-bit has only a limited dll space. Rather do a make install, and then do a rebase all with the freshly installed dlls in the right paths -- Reini Urban http://cpanel.net/ http://www.perl-compiler.org/
