Ah - OK. That was where I started out too, but I wasn't quite able to get much traction with that method because of an external drive issue: I had originally wanted to set up my workspace on my external drive - which was NTFS and Linux doesn't allow you to chmod on NTFS filesystems. As a result, I was never able to actually run the squeak.sh script there, so I gave up on that zip and later ended up discovering the yum install - which I far prefer anyway (I hope this isn't the problem).
So wouldn't the fact that I was able to run the example just fine when I tried your first recommendation (loading the repository from the URL) mean that my squeak-vm is ok?
