Rob --

Thanks for the email. If you have the time to send me the pieces for building a 3.2 Windows VM, that would be groovy.  I haven't played with VMMaker yet.

I think it would be cool if people uploaded custom-built/scratch VMs to the well-known page on the Swiki, along with notes on what they were trying to accomplish with their custom VM.

Squeak 3.2gamma/3.3alpha not opening properly)


Brent,

There were recent changes from LargeFile support, in the image, which may be
causing this.  I recently managed to build a 3.2 Windows VM using VMMaker
and the SourceForge windows codebase, plus some ports of Andreas' Alpha6
code and a few tweaks.

When I get home, tonight, I can probably send you all of the pieces for you
to build one that works, or I could post a prebuilt VM for that purpose.
Note, however, that this VM would not be a final VM for 3.2 since I just
hacked it together.  First, Andreas will probably want to provide more
rigorous support for these changes, and secondly, the SF codebase is still
in quite some flux.  We will need to support the newer intplugins structure
coming out tomorrow for SF, and finish updating the Win32 codebase, out
there, to the 5/17 Alpha6 codebase, plus new fixes for LargeFile, etc.

So where do you all want this temporary VM?  A web-site?

cheers,
Rob
