If you really want to run Garnet, I'd start with Fred Gilham's old
Garnet distribution:
ftp://ftp.csl.sri.com/pub/users/gilham/garnet/

And CMUCL, possibly an older release like 18c or 18d. Use Hemlock as
your development environment.

One of the newer distributions of Garnet may work with a newer lisp,
but nothing in Garnet has changed in years, except for the efforts of
a few people to try to get it running in recent lisps. For a newbie,
I'd say avoid the hassle and go with the fully retro-1990's
environment if that's what you want to check out.
