Yes: all the classes registered with the startup list get notified by 
calling their #startUp: or #startUp method. The parameter to startUp: 
indicates whether the image is restarting after a snapshot.

you do this:

Smalltalk addToStartUpList: SomeClass.

later the system calls:

SomeClass startUp: true  (if resuming after snapshot)
or
SomeClass startUp: false (if starting fresh)
