Hi Eliot

That makes sense. I'll try with the latest versions and if that doesn't
work I'll load them by date. I think I can manage with the script but I'll
let you know if I need any assistance.

Thanks everyone for the help!

Cheers
Angel

Hi Eliot

That makes sense. I'll try with the latest versions and if that doesn't work I'll load them by date. I think I can manage with the script but I'll let you know if I need any assistance.

Hi Marcel

Thanks for your reply.

What about the versions of other packages such as Cog, CogPools-ISAs, BytecodeSets.spur, etc.?

They should be backwards-compatible. So load the latest and see if things work.  Alternatively, once the relevant VMMaker.oscog version has been loaded, locate the oldest versions of support packages younger than VMMaker.oscog.  That should be writable as a script manipulating Monticello.  I can help you out if you need it.

There is a tag for each VM release. The last one is this:
https://github.com/OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm/releases/tag/202206021410 [https://github.com/OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm/releases/tag/202206021410]




Look at the latest commit comments to find out which VMMaker version was used. I think I also created an entry in the update map in the VMMaker repository.




https://github.com/OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm/commit/ad970a90344ad9d2ee56bff9741bc9d68289ea79 [https://github.com/OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm/commit/ad970a90344ad9d2ee56bff9741bc9d68289ea79]

Hope this helps.
