Minimals installation problem OS X 10.6.2

Minimals installation problem OS X 10.6.2

Hi,

On a new Snow Leopard machine, I ran ./first-setup.sh in ~/context.

As instructed at the end of the ./first-setup.sh run, I then
added /Users/pm/context/tex/texmf-osx-64/bin to my .zshenv, and % echo $PATH
shows correct path when I source, logout, restart, etc.

I ran:

p% texexec example.tex
MTXrun | kpse fallback with progname 'context' initialized in 0.001019
seconds

I then tried

p% luatex sample.tex
This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.50.0-2009122423
 \write18 enabled.

kpathsea: Running mktexfmt luatex.fmt
mktexfmt: No such file or directory
I can't find the format file `luatex.fmt'!

Any suggestions on what I should do?

Also, first-setup.sh creates the dir ...tex/texmf-osx-64/bin, but,

p% uname -m
i386

Thank you very much for any help you can offer.

Minimals doesn't ship with plain format, only context. If you want
ConTeXt MkIV then run 'context file.tex' (which can process plain tex
files as well, but I don't know how far compatible is it).

Thank-you, still no luck:

p% context test.tex
MTXrun | unknown script 'context.lua' or 'mtx-context.lua'

AFAIK, you actually need to add

source /Users/pm/context/tex/setuptex

to your .zshrc file rather than adding the path. (The path might also 
work, but I have never tried it. I use "source setuptex" in my setup.)

You may also try

luatools --generate

before running context.

Thank you Aditya, this was the necessary step, ConTeXt working.
