Chris,
 
You probably didn't remove Cygwin registry files after you deleted
Cygwin. 
Here's what I would suggest:
1. Uninstall MoteWorks from Add/Remove Programs.
2. Uninstall copy of Cygwin(s) as per instructions below:
http://www.tinyos.net/tinyos-1.x/doc/uninstall.html#cygwin
3. Roboot the PC and then reinstall MoteWorks.
 
Try compiling MoteWorks apps now.
Giri

Hi Giri,
 
Thanks for your reply.
 
Several months ago, I installed cygwin and tinyos separately, and make
it work.
 
Then I plan to switch to MoteWorks. So, I manually remove the directory
of Cygwin (because Cygwin does not have uninstall utility) and Tinyos.
Then I install MoteWorks. In the process of MoteWorks installation, I
select "Install new CygWin in new location". Then I got these errors.
 
Please suggest me what I should do.
 
Many thanks,
 
Chris

	Hi Chris,
	 
	It sounds like you have Cygwin related issues. Did you install
MoteWorks on top of previous version of TinyOS or Cygwin?
	 
	The second error indicates that not all the tools properly got
installed, which could very well be due to Cygwin issues.

	Hi,
	 
	I am new to TinyOS. I just installed MoteWorks (from
www.xbow.com <http://www.xbow.com/> ) on my Windows XP.
	 
	However, I have the following two problems:
	 
	1. After I double click Cygwin button: I got the following
error:
	 
	"C:\Crossbow\cygwin\bin\bash.exe (2308): *** fork: can't reserve
memory for stack
	 0x30000 - 0x230000, Win32 error 487
	      4 [main] bash 3384 fork_parent: child 2308 died waiting
for longjmp before
	 initialization
	bash: fork: Bad file descriptor"
	 
	2. Following the manual of MoteWorks, I run one of its
applications (Blink) using Programmer Notepad. 
	 
	make mica2 reinstall mib510,com1
	 
	I got the following error:
	 
	"/opt/MoteWorks/make/avr/mib510.extra:5: *** MIB510 must be
defined, try "make mica2 help".  Stop."
	 
	Where should I define MIB510?
	 
	thanks for the information.
	 
	chris
