Re: [Pharo-users] Pharo on a Netbook running TinyCore Linux

I think the "small hardware" market is another area where Pharo can make a good showing for itself, because it's small & relatively lightweight compared to others. So it makes good sense to me to couple Pharo with a similarly lightweight OS. I like the idea of "Pharo as OS + app on dedicated ha

Re: [Pharo-users] Pharo on a Netbook running TinyCore Linux

Ted what I can tell you is that we are really interested in having Pharo more configurable (even from the VM point of view) to support better connection with small hardware os. The crew started to look at the protocols you mention :) And I’m starting to look around for money to do a POC we wil

Re: [Pharo-users] Pharo on a Netbook running TinyCore Linux

Still running on the netbook after 12 hours -- I'm writing this post on the TinyCore netbook, with Pharo Launcher & Pharo in the background. Here's some of the system stats: tc@box:~/pharo$ df -hT | grep -v tcloopFilesystem Type Size Used Available Use% Mounted onrootfs

Re: [Pharo-users] Pharo on a Netbook running TinyCore Linux

I really like this idea of a minimal Linux distro that runs a minimal Pharo image that can be changed on demand according to different needs. It reminds me about some customized Linux distros I made in early 2000's, one called Scilix to package math packages for my undergrad students and after that

Re: [Pharo-users] Pharo on a Netbook running TinyCore Linux

And it seems to be quite stable, too. I couldn't crash it (though I didn't try hard). I've had the 64-bit version of Pharo 8 running on TinyCorePure64-11.1 (out of RAM) for 8 hours now, and it's still working fine. Forums on TinyCore contain comments such as, "TC Linux embodies what is best in

Re: [Pharo-users] Pharo on a Netbook running TinyCore Linux

I love it. Now imagine with our specialised kernel or shrunk down version… We are preparing to - remove a lot of code from Pharo 90 (spec1, eye inspector, GT, Glamour….) - but also to give the possibility to load on demand projects that we are integrating and TESTING

Re: [Pharo-users] Pharo on a Netbook running TinyCore Linux

...and 64-bit Pharo runs in 64-bit TinyCore. So does Pharo Launcher. However, I kept getting bit by the "External module not found" error (libgit2). . .

Re: [Pharo-users] Pharo on a Netbook running TinyCore Linux

BTW, TinyCore Linux was started by Robert Shingledecker. He's the guy who led the "Damn Small Linux" project[1]; when it dissolved, he started TinyCore and kept going... [1] http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/ -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html

Re: [Pharo-users] Pharo on a Netbook running TinyCore Linux

This is running 32-bit Pharo 80 on 32-bit TinyCore 11.1 (Linux kernel 5.4.3). There is a 64-bit version of TinyCore, which I plan to test next... Then test 64-bit Pharo 80 and try Pharo Launcher on top of that. Then on a Raspberry Pi... Here's what's intriguing about this: TinyCore Linux is SU

[Pharo-users] Pharo on a Netbook running TinyCore Linux

This is cool... After I booted TinyCore Linux[1] on my 10-year-old netbook[2], I decided to see if it could run Pharo... It does! Details: [1] http://tinycorelinux.net/ - TinyCore Linux "CorePlus", 32-bit, version 11.1. - Booted from a YUMI multiboot thumbdrive. - Installed 'curl', 'bash', Fir
