G'day

I've been trying to get the svn version of idst to compile on MinGW. I starts off well but after a while gets to a point where it starts creating hundreds of instances of sh.exe, bringing my well specced Toshiba laptop to its knees.

You're probably expecting a screenshot or cut and paste of the console output, but I'm a little afraid to run the build again as it takes me ages to recover: usually I have to hold down the power button till the machine does a hard reset! Even doing a 'make clean' took an inordinate amount of time.

Am I hoping for too much? Should I finish installing Debian in a VM and attempt a build in there?

Kind regards,
Bruce M. Axtens.
