Having spent some time with Erlang on Xen and OpenMirage, I'm convinced that Pharo/Cog on Xen is something I must do. However, I still have much to learn about the Squeak/Cog VM before I could dream of porting it.

Great to hear your enthusiasm. I only recently built my first VM, and discovered it was much easier than I thought. Have a go with these instructions... https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-vm Even if your not up for modifying the code yet, its a nice buzz to get a VM build under the belt. One tip... in generator.image, review implementors of #initializePrimitiveTable to see which primitive numbers map to which primitive methods. cheers -ben
