Hi,
The Swiki Swiki offers 3.7 based images. Is there a vm and image combination that could run the swiki on a Raspi?
I want to run a tiny house wiki on our LAN.
Cheers,
Herbert

Hi Herbert,
If you want to run the existing 3.7 based image, you can use an interpreter VM that you compile on your Raspberry Pi. I think that it has been a year or two since I last did this, but it should work.
The instructions for compiling the VM are at http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/6354.
You will need to use apt-get to install a few development packages first (C development tools, CMake, and Subversion). I'm sorry I don't have any notes on this but if I can find a keyboard and display for my old Raspberry Pi, I'll see if I can find the specific packages needed.
As long as you have the development tools installed, you should be able to follow the instructions on that swiki page, or just run the shell script linked from that page at http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/uploads/6354/mkvm

Actually it's even simpler than that; Raspbian still has an interpreter image installed as a backup in case users had problems with the latest NuScratch system.
I've just tested it on my main Pi 3b+ with an image I created in '05 (can't share it, it was DoD work) and it seems perfectly happy. I think that must have been about 3.2? So a 3.7 image should be just fine.
Just run squeak.old {insert-myImage-name-here.im}

According to my old notes, cmake, subversion, libasound2-dev, libssl-dev, maybe uuid-dev, libcairo2-dev.
It's a long time ago now but I'm reasonably sure the ARM fastbitblt stuff is properly incorporated as well; it makes a big difference to Morphic performance etc.

Actually I just worked out it was '01, so US DoD and so probably a 2.8 or 3.0 version.

How difficult would it be to port Swiki Swiki to trunk? The Spur VMs are much faster.

Hi all,
Hannes seems to have done the work already (porting to 5.2 current VM) and offered instructions / image via private mail.
If the instructions work for me I will edit the relevant pages on the Swiki. I will report next weekend.
Cheers and thanks to all who replied,
Herbert
