[Tinyos-help] Re: Cygwin fork copy error

I was using the dual setup so my cygwin installation was from the 1.1.11 autoinstaller and I'd used the upgrade instructions for 2.0. 
When I unistalled and tried to reinstall from the autoinstaller, it gave the same fork_copy errors and the installation was not successful so I finally gave up on it.

I was about to try what Faisal recommended and install 2.0 directly but decided to give Windows System Restore a shot. I chose a restore point from last week where everything worked well and presto, the error went away. Of course I had to reinstall tinyos but I was able to do a clean install this time around. So it must have been a corrupted DLL file somewhere. 

Thanks for all the help and suggestions
