Re: Installation with root privilage: can't download Intel Fortran F90 compiler


It won't work because Cygwin is not a Linux emulator. There are no
recent Linux emulators/translation layers for Windows and even if you
did use one the compiler would not generate Windows binaries. You need
a Windows version of the Intel Fortran compiler or you could use a
virtual machine (e.g. VirtualBox) / Co-operative Linux to run a full
Linux session under Windows. How to do any of this is off-topic for
this mailing list.

The problem with running filename.sh was fixed with d2u - thanks!

But there's another problem now!

I am trying to download the Intel Fortran F90 compiler (which is
originally intended for Linux) to work on windows with Cygwin. It
requires installing as 'root'. I tried to install it from the windows
Administrator account, but it didn't work. Would you know how to fix
this?

Thanks,
KB
