Dumb question, *where* do you see these warnings? Just curious, because a bad snapshot/startup seems a likely (if not mysterious) part of my troubles. BTW, sleep intervened, but I did have some additional success after clearing the mc caches.

One snag: I'm still getting strangely broken images (won't open process browser or debugger) after trying to download some things. I have mirrored squeak source, BUT, some things (SIXX, ODBC) don't appear to have working configs, so I'm trying to grab the latest packages, and *that* might not be mirrored. I might need to specify the mirror server in my code to make them work.
Still, I don't get how simply asking MC to download something will permanently mar the image w/o my doing an explicit save. Does MC snapshot before/during an attempted load? It seems very misguided that an innocent attempt to load something can hobble an image??
One other crazy possibility: is killing a vm from the (Ubunutu) system monitor somehow not sufficient to clear what is running? Dumb question? Maybe, but I'm stumped. Any ideas?

I just downloaded the latest CogWin and Pharo 1.4 image and I got "WARNING: Manufactured file handle detected!" at the bottom, and popup full of startup errors.
A couple of days ago tried Pharo-1.4-14315 and with cogwin_r2522. I had the same warning, with a debugger showing "Error: Got startup errors" in method SmalltalkImage snapshot:andQuit: " at line: startupErrors isEmpty ifFalse: [ self error: 'Got startup errors ' ]. where startupErrors = an OrderedCollection(ShouldBeImplemented: #preferencesFolder should have been implemented in DosFileDirectory class) So I thought I may as well try implementing DosFileDirectory>>preferencesFolder - which I've left as a comment on ISSUE 5255. <http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=5255> A nice side effect of this was that all the "WARNING: Manufactured file handle detected!" went away. Reverting this change reintroduces the warnings. cheers, -ben
