Hi Peter,<br>As Mariano said above, what you probably want is to be able to run the 32 bit VM in your 64 bit Linux.<br>If this is the case, what you are probably missing is the 32 bit libraries, that you can install:<br><br>
<span>sudo</span> apt-get install ia32-libs<br><br>Cheers<br><br>r<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Oct 12, 2009 at 9:51 AM, Peter Osburg <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:nabble@peterosburg.otherinbox.com">nabble@peterosburg.otherinbox.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

</div>I would like to raise the question again.<br>
<br>
I tried to download squeak in a Debian with the mechanism described here:<br>
<a href="http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/3616" target="_blank">http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/3616</a><br>
<br>
Unfortunately I always get this message: "Failed to fetch<br>
<a href="http://ftp.squeak.org/debian/dists/stable/main/binary-amd64/Packages.gz" target="_blank">http://ftp.squeak.org/debian/dists/stable/main/binary-amd64/Packages.gz</a> 404<br>
Not Found"<br>
<br>
Is there a simple way like using "apt-get update" to install the latest<br>
64bit vm? I am not that familiar with Linux and I would prefer easy and<br>
simple ways, though :D<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance for any help.<br>
<br>
