PhiHo, could you tell us a little about MobVM and how it bootstraps itself? for instance, do you have an image that accesses the network to download plugins or is it inside of the c code? Is it written in slang? > > - base changesets and plugins to add the bare minimum for gui (MVC or > > Morphic?), network, SqueakMap > > These can be installed through SqueakMap ? > (except plugins, which are handled automagically by MobVM) I don't really know, but I was imagining that a basic SqueakMap installer could be loaded into the base squeak image with the ability to load SARs from the disk. I think it would be useful to let SqueakMap load both packages and plugins. This is because I am seeing that SqueakMap tracks loaded packages... cheers, rob
