Haiku definitely make good progress and it's still running fast on emulation.
Give it a try using VMware:

Might not build on all distros

Someone has reported that building Haiku fails on ubuntu breezy, so it might not build on all distros. But it should a least build on debian sarge, as that is what I used when i wrote the guide.

The error message when building on breezy in case someone wants to try to figure out why it fails: http://rafb.net/paste/results/9KLkyC15.html

I've compiled it on breezy. The problem is with gcc 4.0 (by default in breezy). If you change the system to use gcc 3.4 then it works.

Sorry for my bad english.

This new build system should help out development a good amount. Once I can get a hold of a dual pentium 3 system, I'm gonna load Linux + Haiku and see how I can help.

So, how has using "jam" worked out for them? Are there regrets? Would ant or SCons have been a better choice, or are they happy with jam?

Nice to see that two operating systems I love can cooperate.

I hope the cooperation goes even further.

I hope someone will make a LiveCD in the near future... For now, the script for the Livecd making is simply broken.
