Great work Jorge! Nice to know you won the battle against VMMaker! The ensure in special objects array error, has to do with some missing classes as John pointed out. The smalltalk special objects array has hardcoded indexes for some relevant classes ( Globals) in the system. In the alien configuration i've just ensured that the size should be 53, before loading Alien, because the Alien code installs itself in that array at positions 54 and 55. _______________________________________________ Pharo-project mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pharo-project
