Dear FSLers,
When running fslvbm_2_template I was getting some fslvbm2a.e... files that cited a memory issue. I see now that this stems from my inability to run FAST due to memory:
dan@ubuntu:/host/Users/Dan/Data$ fast -g BET/DV..._struc_brain.nii.gz
Image Exception : #99 :: Out of memory
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'RBD_COMMON::BaseException'
Aborted
dan@ubuntu:/host/Users/Dan/Data$
I am running Ubuntu on a 64bit machine with 4GB RAM. Since this seems fine for FLIRT I thought it would be also be fine for FAST, but apparently not. I see on some related posts that I should compile FSL to run on a 64bit machine. I installed FSL via the Neurodebbian depository so I had assumed this would be taken care of automatically, but perhaps not. Can someone tell me (a) if this is likely to be the issue I'm experiencing with fslvbm_2_template/FAST, and (b) how I can check if FSL is compiled optimally for a 64bit machine?
Many thanks in advance,
Dan.
