Pablo, thanks so much for your help! I was able to build the VM successfully using the linked instructions, however when I try to use it to run either a Pharo 80 or Pharo 90 image it does not work.
I think the following bits from 'PharoDebug.log' may be relevant (full contents here: https://pastebin.com/9sk400WW): ``` =============================================================================== Notice: Your VM is too old for this image. Please download the latest VM. =============================================================================== THERE_BE_DRAGONS_HERE Your VM is too old for this image.

I am thinking perhaps the date '2019-01-05' needs to be changed somewhere before compiling.
