BeOS & Derivatives As of Late, the Haiku project has been making some major steps forward, most notably the ability to 'self host', one of the most important milestones for the upcoming alpha release. In addition to development progress, Haiku is also making a name or itself in the Free software world in general, by attending conferences, for instance. Last weekend, Haiku was present at the LugRadio Live USA 2008 event, held in San Fransisco.

Would much prefer an image of Haiku that could be run off a bootable flash thumb drive. Bootable CD's really do not do any OS they present any favours as the data transfer capabilities are lack luster.

Much prefer a flash thumb drive version which would

1. be fast and

2. allow for read and write capabilities for the OS.

A 2Gig flash thumb drive would suit a Haiku install nicely with room to spare for playing around and doing things with the OS. It also would show the real wow factor of the OS with regards to responsiveness.

Waiting patiently for Haiku to arise and the VMWare Imge, although working ok didn't allow for me to mount any Hard Drives and didn't at the time provide any apps to use on Haiku i.e. Firefox.
