Mark,
Make sure to use 64-bit (that is 64-bit Pharo on 64-bit Linux), it will make
your life much easier.
Here is a short example:
stfx@audio359:~$ mkdir pharo8
stfx@audio359:~$ cd !$
cd pharo8
stfx@audio359:~/pharo8$ curl get.pharo.org/64/80+vm | bash
% Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current
Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed
100 3054 100 3054 0 0 67866 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 69409
Downloading the latest 80 Image:

Pharo.image
Downloading the latest pharoVM:
http://files.pharo.org/get-files/80/pharo64-linux-stable.zip
pharo-vm/pharo
Creating starter scripts pharo and pharo-ui
stfx@audio359:~/pharo8$ nohup ./pharo Pharo.image eval --no-quit 'ZnServer
startOn: 9090' &
[1] 84125
nohup: ignoring input and appending output to 'nohup.out'
stfx@audio359:~/pharo8$ curl http://localhost:9090/random
CF4173824EF6E0D9F336E5464A5FACB8ABEFFD1A6EE7A5F9F6631186F619606
stfx@audio359:~/pharo8$ jobs
[1]+ Running nohup ./pharo Pharo.image eval --no-quit
'ZnServer startOn: 9090' &
stfx@audio359:~/pharo8$ kill %1
[1]+ Terminated nohup ./pharo Pharo.image eval --no-quit
'ZnServer startOn: 9090'
BTW, nohup is one way to keep something running after you log out (systemctl
services being the pro/real way)
Is this not how it works out for you ?
