[Vm-dev] Headless Image: a Riddle

Here is a quick riddle for you:

The Context:
- os: debian
- vm: cog
- image: the image from the pier site, in which I updated to the
latest version of the pier packages. Pier runs on port 8087.

If I run the following line:

~/coglinux/bin/squeak x.image

the image starts with no error and port 8087 is open.

If I run the following line:

~/coglinux/bin/squeak -nodisplay -nosound x.image

the image just blocks and the port 8087 is not open.

do you have any idea what could be the reason? I tried with all the
possible parameter combinations: (-headless, -vm-display-none)

Thanks,
M.
