It seems that this is the big improvemnet for future development of 64 VM and images. At least people like i ( who is not dev. masters on C and Linux ) can try to use 64 bit squeak on their machines.
Please ask Ian to put it on squeakvm or at least update it once more on my ftp.barnet.sk l: squeak p: squeak.
Jan,
I put sq64-10-dtl.tgz on your ftp site. This contains an image with VMMaker, OSPP, and a few unofficial fixes. You can use it with current platform sources from Subversion.
I don't think that anyone keeps images on squeakvm, aside from the original one that was provided a couple of years ago. You should consider that as a reference implementation that shows what can be done, not as a supported product. But the good news is that Ian and Dan did all of the hard work, and if a few of us pitch in to update the plugins and do some other maintenance work on it, then 64-bit Squeak will work just fine.
