So I understand you tested Squeak5.3a on MacOS Snow Leopard on a 2010
machine. And it did not work.

I understand that if you take the VM from a Squeak5.0-All-InOne 32 bit
release and use a Squeak5.3alpha-18222 image it runs fine.


Does this mean that the VMs includes in the releases 5.1 and 5.2 do
not work on MacOS Snow leopard with a Squeak5.3alpha-18222-32bit?


Kind regards

P.S. Please note that the current Squeak5.3 alpha image has the build
number 18879. For testing it is good to go for the latests version.

P.S. 2   I changed the subject line [Bug] --> [Test]. It is about
testing which old OS is supported or no longer supported. The other
issue is finding a workaround for your problem. For example it might
be a solution for you to run the very recent Squeak5.3a image with a
Squeak 5.0VM.
But maybe the fixes needed are not many.
