I tried to install cygwin on the Windows Vista Beta 2 (build 5308), here are 
the problems I've run into:
1) During package install bash seems to crash.
I get this dialog from windows:
Please close bash.exe
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will notify 
you if a solution is available.

This occurs (it appears) once per package.

2) After install tools crash. About one in three times I run ls in /usr/bin 
I get:

[foo@bar /usr/bin]$ ls
      6 [main] ? (4596) C:\cygwin\bin\tcsh.exe: *** fatal error - couldn't 
alloc
ate heap, Win32 error 0, base 0x800000, top 0x89B000, reserve_size 630784,

0x227010..0x23000

No more processes.

If you would like anymore information feel free to contact me at this email 
address.

Thanks,

Jennifer
