David,

Sorry for the delay.  Busy life.  I was hoping someone else would repond 
to this.

There are only the 3 supported Cuis image structure variants.

With a virtual machine, 68K is not an "image kind exists" problem as 
much as a "VM support kind" of problem.

I suggest you ask the OpenSmalltalk folks on the vm-dev list (CC'ed)  
about a 68K VM which supports one or more of the currently available 
image formats.

BTW, what OS are you running on?  [E.g. "uname -a" on Linux/Unix]

Good luck.
