That is both weird and in some sense wrong; Eliot & I use the armv6 flag so far as  I know and don’t have this issue. I *did* have this problem a very long time ago though. The question is whether I can find any evidence of what I did to get  past it…

First thing, try `sudo ./mvm`. If you’re using xrdp to connect to your Pi it makes some odd things happen to do with permissions.

And as for why changing that flag should have anything to do with the problem… frakkin’ insane unix nonsense yet again. Yup, the vm I built this lunchtime has the armv6 flag on. Built perfectly well aside from the sccs version number issue I mentioned before.
