cygwin-b20; windows 2000; not enough memory error


Hi,
I am struggling with getting cygwin to work under Windows 2000.
Am trying to compile a Linux tailored to my system. 'Make config' works OK,
'make dep' however causes lots of error messages:
mkdep: mmap: Not enough memory
It makes no difference doing this from DOS prompt direct, or from bash. Of
course checked the memory environment of the DOS emulation that Win 2000
gives. Initially this was just 1 MB. It took me a while to find how one can
set extended and expanded memory (via properties of
> _DEFAULT.PIF) but even with both set to their max, which is 65 MB, this
seems to have no effect on the 'Not enough memory' error. MEM reports by the
way that max execution space is still under 1 MB, as always with DOS. So am
out of ideas now what else I can do. Can you help ? Does cygwin apply
extended memory ?
