Hi Stef, If I use a base Pharo-1.4 image I can recover the changes so thanks for pointing that out. Is there a way to skip over the doIts that I might've done in an 'explore' window during the 'recover changes' process?
If I use the broken image's changes file and a more recent image of mine rather than the base Pharo 1.4 image I get this notice: "this image has never been saved since changes were compressed" Not sure what to make of that. I thought I might be able to save some work by using an older version of the broken image from a backup of my laptop. I don't have a debugging VM but this is what gdb outputs for the crash: Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x0000000000419835 in initializeInterpreter () Thanks again Paul On 03/03/2013 06:43 AM, stephane ducasse wrote: > Hi paul > > did you try to receover the changes? > we should improve this part too > did you try the following: > - take a fresh 1.4 > - rename your change file as the change of the new version > - and do recover ? > > Stef > On Mar 3, 2013, at 3:36 PM, Paul DeBruicker <[email protected]> wrote: > >> My laptop battery ran down when I was not paying attention.
