All of this is pretty much entirely wrong ;-) HydraVM allows the
creation of multiple interacting object memories where each object
memory is served by a native thread and can contain many Squeak
threads. Thus, a fork in HydraVM does not create a native thread either
- the creation of a native thread is bound to the instantiation of
another object memory. Also, HydraVM works on all the major platforms
(Win, Mac, Unix).

Sometimes is a relief to be completely wrong !!! But I just quoted this:<br>
<br>
<h3>"Availability</h3>
Currently, HydraVM runs only on Win32 platform. For making it run on
different platforms you need to change platform-specific code to make
it compatible with new interpreter.<br>
<br>
There is no binaries for download publicly available yet, so you would
need to download and build VM yourself."<br>

So, I guess that the page is outdated.<br>
<br>
I will look at it asap since it interests me a lot.<br>
