I am experiencing the same problem as Marcel. I think the trick is "having VMMaker already loaded", but I have no idea what this means. I've scanned the swiki, but nothing really tips me off. Any ideas?
I'm using the unix vm (3.7b-5) with the 5989 image.
Thanks, Wilkes

Success! Didn't change a thing, except having VMMaker already loaded. This time, the "initializing..." progress bar didn't even appear long enough to be noticeable, the various tests worked and I started playing around with the browser after putting the nib in the right place.
Third time lucky? (Versions were exact same ones you mentioned, all freshly downloaded)
Now I'll play around with it some more....I see you are using the threaded model...interesting...but it's so wonderful to finally have this in place!
Cheers,
Marcel

OK, loading this from the repository gets me an error about a dependency that needs to be resolved "SmartSyntaxInterpreterPlugin", which I can't find in a fresh 3.7 beta image.

better idea.
SmartSyntaxInterpreterPlugin is part of VMMaker. But you're right that if you don't need to build the plugin, you can proceed through that warning.
So I tried loading it anyway, which proceeds, takes quite some time in downloading/installing and then seems to grind to a halt completely in initializing. Does this simply take a long time? Or do I need to resolve that reference? Or something else?
Hm, it went by relatively quickly for me (the actual load does take a while because of all the convenience stubs for FoundationKit and AppKit methods). I tried it on a fresh 5923 image, with the Squeak 3.7b-5 VM and the ObjectiveCPlugin already installed.
Which versions are you using?
