Given a Pharo0.1Core-10204.image
with the following changes to collect startup times in SystemDictionary>>send: toClassesNamedIn: with:
Seem simple?
I hacked usage of FilePackage log: because it was simple and wanted to record times & progress to a file in the VM directory.
But the windows VM coughs up the dialog saying the file does not exist, create a new file or choose another file. This does not happen on mac or linux?
The file is not created via the hopeful code in the modified FilePackage>>logFileStream
It does not write a debug log, does not allow mouse clicks, keyboard entry etc, in general it's obvious to any input activity at this point.
Now I wondering here if sandboxing for etoys is leaping in and being nasty? Is there some magical call that is done later in the startup: processing that ok's the ability to create files? And that I *know* later after system startup I *can* invoke FilePackage log: 'foo' and we are happy if I rip out the file access in log:
Oh and I'm here because WikiServer wouldn't start on Windows, well because I've ripped out lots of eToy stuff, like the the eToy startup security sandboxing which isn't needed on the iPhone.

Oh at shutdown: time we need to do a FilePackage closeLog, where that happens is an exercise for the reader.
