I am trying to load and run OSProcess in Cog. I loaded:

OSProcess-Base OSProcess-AIO OSProcess-Win32 OSProcess-Unix OSProcess-Tests

Then ran the tests. Many failures.

I looked at the vm and there is no ProcessPlugin or OSProcessPlugin. Should there be?

OSProcess will not work without the OSProcessPlugin. AFAIK no one has tried this yet (including me - sorry I've been quite busy lately).

What should I do?

If you are compiling your own COG VM, then load OSProcessPlugin from SqueakSource and give it a try. But just to set expectations, I will be (pleasantly) surprised if it works the first time without modifications, so consider it pre-alpha at this point.
