I was not planning specializing the VM for the image. But rather link in a VM
with everything needed to run
a range of images. The dependencies are handled by creating an OCAML module
that expresses these and the
VM code then lives in the module. The OCAML dependence analyser (a sat solver)
then ensures those are satisfied.
But if you don't have a specialized smalltalk vm and image, you will
have to embed full system dependencies, in order to build a full working
smalltalk system (having most part not working could be a very bad
thing), and then you loose the unikernel approach benefits (very lean
dedicated system, small attack surface etc.).
And yo uget a standard vm, call it NOS, NONOS or whatever :)
May be have a look at Spoon (suggested by Craig) and Seed and Hazelnut
