Just tried the .zip on RasPi4.

The RunCuisOnLinux.sh script correctly reported aarch64/arm64 
unsupported in the zip.

Standard arm64 vm runs Cuis7.0.image correctly.


Suggestion for the README.md


Note that the included vm is limited to x86 but one can obtain a 
prebuilt vm for aarch64/arm64 and some others.  E.g.:

   
https://github.com/OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm/releases/squeak.cog.spur_linux64ARMv8.tar.gz

Or build for RISCV64 via git clone and following VM build instructions.


I would suggest a brief addendum and addition of clonePackageRepos.sh 
and pullAllRepos.sh.  Perhaps described in "GettingStarted.md"?  
Reference to Documentation dir & LearningCuis ?

Looks great so far!
