Hi,
if I try to launch a Pharo image and the current user only has read access, I see a black window that never disappears. How can I launch an image without having write access to it? This is a problem for all pharo-based applications that companies will produce because they will probably be placed in read-only directories such as /usr/bin or /Applications or c:\program files
are you sure this is image file, not .changes? because i see that VM uses fopen(file, "rb") for openiing it. btw, have you tried to trace system calls while launching VM? i just tried: ls -la ~/Downloads/NativeBoost/NativeBoost.image -r--r--r--@ 1 sig staff 25081972 Jul 12 19:48 /Users/sig/Downloads/NativeBoost/NativeBoost.image opening it without problem.
