Hm, I don't know what exactly happens. It seems this behavior started with Pharo 50574. Since that image version, the UUIDGenerator will be reset on startup. Maybe the initialization of the uuidgenerator (or the random seed) will access the filesystem and at this step the file system initialization traps into an infinit loop. What I don't understand is, why this only happens when the image was saved on a windows platform and reopened on a unix platform. Maybe, saving the image (or the shutDownList) does not fully cleanup the platform settings. Please open a bug entry. 2016-06-25 17:17 GMT+02:00 Maximiliano Tabacman via Pharo-users < pharo-users@lists.pharo.org>:

I am not sure if this issue is known, or what files to provide to help fix it. In the latest image (60112, but my guess is that this will happen with all Pharo 6 images) if I download a clean latest image, start Pharo on Windows, save the image, then copy it to a Linux environment, and try to start it, the image freezes even before displaying the workspace (I get an unresponsive black and white box in Linux, only killable through xkill command). I am sure this did not happen back with Pharo 5. If I output "./pharo Image.image > log.txt" I end up with a huge file since there seems to be an infinite loop while trying to determine the FileStore to use.
The first lines of this output file, before going into the loop, are:

Thanks for any feedback and/or insight on how I should proceed to avoid this from happening, or what bug should I monitor to know when this might be fixed.
