I got it to compile and run, but the image couldn't do IO or respond to UI events. I've found VirtualBox handy for this sort of thing—you can get ready-made images for many operating systems, which saves installing and configuring a bare-metal installation. </div> </div> </blockquote></div>So you got as far as I did. After some thoughts I guess the heart beat Eliot introduced for Cog might be a possible cause of the problem.<div>When I did my first Solaris compilations of the Squeak VM a couple of years ago I had to adjust the signal handler installation. Solaris needs re-registration after a signal has been caught. I will take a look asap.</div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div>Andreas</div></div></blockquote><br></div></body></html>
