Hi Folks,
Just wanted to PING the list again to see if anyone had any feedback. Am I just seeing a crash that no one else is seeing and it is something with my setup, is there a safe VM version that people are using to update from the trunk image, and is anyone else able to grab the image that Marcel posted and do a successful update on the trunk?
I am just playing around with the image Marcel posted and it is just fine for getting work done, but my OCD tendencies flare up a bit knowing that I am not working with fully updated code.
Any help or at least just letting me know that this is a problem on my end rather than the trunk would be greatly appreciated.
I'm not sure whats going on. Perhaps your image has got into a strange state. I have no problems updating the 4.5 image from the all-in-one to trunk as part of the Spur image bootstrap. See http://www.squeakvm.org/svn/squeak/branches/Cog/image/buildspurtrunkimage.sh... You might try checking-out http://www.squeakvm.org/svn/squeak/branches/Cog/image and running the script to check. The script downloads an up-to-date VM, the All-in-one, changes the update repository, updates, then builds a VMMaker image and then uses that to convert the updated trunk to Spur. This has been working well for a couple of months.
HTH
Just a caveat about the scripts Eliot mentions. Due to recent flux in the layout of the All-in-One, [at least some of] the scripts stopped working. See
