My machine is an Athlon XP 2100+, with 512 MB of memory. I don't think it should take that long to do the "plain vanilla" generate a site with forrest, which is why I'm asking around. /-: > >Here's what I've done to try to get it working: > >% mkdir tmp > >% cd tmp > >% forrest seed > >% forrest run & > >% forrest site > > Why are you running forrest as a process and then building the site? Well, I tried to do just a % mkdir tmp % cd tmp % forrest seed % forrest sitei but it hung at the same point.
