-----SNIP----------

I will re-download 3.2 from squeak.org later today (it's around 2:30AM now) 
and document exactly what happens as I work towards a 
[VI4]3.4Beta5156.image.

The "functioning" [VI4] 3.4Beta5156.image I have now pops up a "Error: 
Undefined Object setToEnd?" window/morph when I left click Open... 
PackageLoader. The only packages I have loaded (after installing SM/DVS)are 
SARInstaller, DHB Numerical, Win32NativeFonts, and LargeCollections before 
it ceased working. There was an issue with the Win32NativeFonts which I'll 
describe later if it happens again.

I nearly gave up trying to update [VI4] (once I finally got IT to work on 
this machine) - and I did revisit http://minnow.cc.gatech.edu/squeak/2119 
many times... I did everything in order as suggested there (several times - 
with freshly downloaded 3.2s from queak.org), but recall errors inevitably 
popping up anywhere between update step 1 and 3 or somewhere in the process 
of updating from Squeak Public Updates.

I will try again from scratch and see what happens. Everything will probably 
work :)

Thanx,

Ken
