New Linux 1.4 installation problem

[Altera_Forum]

I recently installed Quartus II 5.0, NIOS II 5.0, and Linux 1.4. At the end of the Linux 1.4 installation I got the folllowing error message: 

 "Cygwin extensions were not installed properly", "Please see the README for instructions on how to install them manually"  I didn't find any reference in the README file that came up shortly there after. Is there another README file that explains how to do this?  Any help much appreciated!

whoops... oversight on our part. 

 From the Nios II SDK Shell, try running the following commands:  cd /cygdrive/c/Program\ Files/Microtronix\ Nios\ II\ Linux\ Distribution ./install_cyg_ext.sh  It should install the Cygwin Extensions for you.

I'm having the same problem. When I run the install script, I get 

umount: /usr/lib: No such file or directory  Subsequent attempt yield a different error: No manual entry for umount  I installed QuartusII 5.0 (reboot) Install Nios II 5.0  (reboot) Install Microtronix Nios II Linux (1.4) - this ends with an error about cygwin extensions not being install.  (reboot) Run install_cyg_ext.sh (get errors above)  I about to try uninstalling everything (again) and start over. Takes quite a while...

Can you send me the output of the following commands: 

 echo $QUARTUS_ROOTDIR mount  when run from a Nios II SDK Shell?  Oh, and can you send me a copy of:  c:\program files\microtronix\nios II linux distribution\install_settings.cache  I'll take a look and see what I can turn up.  Ken.

Software runs very well on my laptop, but I have exactly the same problem on my desktop... Both systems are WinXP, very similar software on both of them installed, so I really have no idea what&#39;s wrong. Did you have any success with tracing this bug?  Jerry.

The easy workaround is to enter the command: 

 mount \\ /usr/lib  then run the script. Since the scripts tries to umount the directory before doing anything else, it doesn&#39;t matter what directory is really mounted to /usr/lib.  Tony

Its really annoying, because exactly _the_same_software_ installed on my laptop is behaving differently. After installing it on laptop first time, there was no plugin in IDE. I uninstallled it, installed again and it&#39;s working perfectly. On my PC - no luck. Microtronix plugin was present after first installation, but when I&#39;m trying to configure kernel - shell window is closing after 1sec.  The only difference: on my PC I&#39;m using roaming profile (to be able to login from each PC in company). But after logging in as local user and reinstalling software, there was no luck ;-(  Looks like quite a big number of people has the same problem - but what&#39;s the workaround?  There&#39;s output from install_cyg_ext.sh:  /cygdrive/c/Program Files/Microtronix Nios II Linux Distribution [SOPC Builder]$ ./install_cyg_ext.sh rm: cannot remove `curses.h&#39;: No such file or directory rm: cannot remove `form.h&#39;: No such file or directory rm: cannot remove `menu.h&#39;: No such file or directory rm: cannot remove `panel.h&#39;: No such file or directory rm: cannot remove `unctrl.h&#39;: No such file or directory /cygdrive/c/Program Files/Microtronix Nios II Linux Distribution [SOPC Builder]$

Same problem stuck at o/p 

[SOPC Builder]$ ./install_cyg_ext.sh rm: cannot remove `curses.h&#39;: No such file or directory rm: cannot remove `form.h&#39;: No such file or directory rm: cannot remove `menu.h&#39;: No such file or directory rm: cannot remove `panel.h&#39;: No such file or directory rm: cannot remove `unctrl.h&#39;: No such file or directory /cygdrive/c/Program Files/Microtronix Nios II Linux Distribution

Try entering the following commands first: 

 touch /usr/include/curses.h touch /usr/include/form.h touch /usr/include/menu.h touch /usr/include/panel.h touch /usr/include/unctrl.h  Then the script will have some empty files to delete to make it happy..
