Mariano,
Ok, so you
hid it in the readme file :) I had next to no trouble finding
it in the archives, but it's such a small (but critical) instruction that we
probably should put it on the download page. There is already a
"table" of vms; along with OS andalternative, we might add a release notes
column and have a 64 bit link there?? The notes could also include things
like dragging the image over the VM on windows, a sample shell script and
mention of execution permissions on Linux.
BTW, pharo-project.org is really starting to look nice.
While I'm at it, on the home page under Quick Links, it might be better to
replace "report a bug" with "Report or View Bugs" as that is what the link does
- no big deal if others disagree.

Hi Billl.
It has already been discussed together with Damien and
Miguel and it was put in the readme.txt of the latest Pharo Linux VM. If you see
pharo-vm-0.15.2d-linux you will see that readme.txt says:
"If you
have a 64-bit Linux kernel, you have to install the 32-bit
compatibility
library. For example, in Ubuntu you have to install
ia32-libs:
$ sudo
aptitude install ia32-libs"
Do you want to put it in another place?
Where?
cheers,
Mariano
To
test the VM, I tried the web beta as-is, and hit the Seaside "a service is
already running..." bug. That got me thinking about things that might
have been truncated/skipped due to the error. It did not take long to
see that #send:toClassesNamedIn:with: is already protected with
#on:do:.
So what is all this about? The error block catches
Exception, and I _think_ I was told that was a bad idea. That might be
Dolphin-specific and not applicable here, but I thought it worth
asking.
Bill
