Hi Luigi,

Thanks for having taken the time to test the file I gave in my message.

Indeed my problem comes from luatex not finding the fonts Latin Modern, which mkii finds without any difficulty…

So minimals are ok.

Not really, since my mkii is the one I have in TexLive 2008, updated to 

ConTeXt ver: 2008.10.17 10:41 MKII fmt: 2008.10.17 int: english/english

and it works fine.

Up to now I didn't have installed the minimals through the commands given on the Garden.

However, since you told me that it works fine, I just tried to install the minimals too, but while generating the formats I get:

! LuaTeX error ...mini/tex/texmf-context/tex/context/base/luat-tex.lua:322: attempt to perform arithmetic on local 'total' (a nil value). <*> ...texmf-context/tex/context/base/cont-nl.tex \dump

Despite this, knowing that I have installed the minimals in a directory

/Applications/context-mini

and run the file setuptex contained in 

/Applications/context-mini/tex

if I say

/Applications/context-mini/tex/texmf-osx-intel/bin/texexec basic-test.tex

a correct PDF is created, while if I say

/Applications/context-mini/tex/texmf-osx-intel/bin/texexec --lua basic-test.tex

again I have a blank PDF and the log file says that the fonts Latin Modern are not found.
