Greetings,
I am trying to scale the effort to port the Squeak VM to the Inferno OS
http://inferno-os.org/
but have not yet had success building a minimal VM on Linux using Squeak 4.5 and instructions on
http://www.mirandabanda.org/cogblog/build-image/
or
http://www.mirandabanda.org/cogblog/compiling-the-vm/
using VMMaker.
I have tried a couple of buildsqueak*.st scripts with Sq 4.5 but the generated code comes up with a black window or fails altogether.
I know we are all busy (I include myself) but if anyone could help out with suggestions I would appreciate it.
I am reluctant to spend more time on this until I can successfully generate and compile C sources and run an image from the gen'ed sources.
Hints are fine. I have not used C, gdb, or Make this century, so am probably doing something not too bright.
Thanks in advance,
-KenD
