Re: Installation problem - "unix" root doesn't work

Hi Dave, Your last mail gave a hint to me. The fact that bash.exe exists in one place and doesn't exist in another place made me think about cygwin1.dll Actually, I looked for it on my disk and I found a tool which included in it an old version of cygwin1.dll. Apparently, the installation of this
