From time to time I take a look at , to see what’s new. Every time I think to myself: „I’m not sure if Haiku wouldn’t be the better desktop OS“.

I usually run that as a VM on a different, not very beefy host. All of the UI gets send via the network and I think I it’s just using some VESA drivers. The whole OS is so darn fast and fun to use. Yes, there are a lot of apps missing and therefore it wouldn’t be a good daily driver. But it’s also not very far from it.

Okay, I found out why didn’t boot: in the BIOS settings, I needed to change the SATA operation mode from “RAID On” to “AHCI”. And now, it boots like a charm!

@msBeeBop Ohh cool! Then you'll be fine, you know what you're doing!

I think I remember it didn't support the video on my 2018 ThinkPad properly, so it gave me a 4:3 SVGA display mode stretched to 16:9 HiDPI. I forget if it worked okay on my 2012-era MacBook Pros. But I don't think I've tried Haiku Beta 4 yet, hope things have improved!

I did run BeOS R5 & yellowTAB Zeta as my main OS in the early 2000s for a while, so I'd like to succeed!

I've been trying to install on some real hardware for the past few hours and I'm not getting past this screen, and a Haiku boot loader that can't find the freshly installed OS.

I tried using MBR and GPT partition tables, different partitioning tools, running writembr in the terminal myself after installable was complete, even hex-edited my MBR at some point, but still no Haiku for me. 🙁

looking back 20 years when I was browsing repositories wishing I could write c++
today after a career and learning my shit and being able to code anything I want
then it was lack of skill now it's lack of time/energy/money and constantly rescaling my own expectations.
learning to code is now easier than it's ever been. I think we'll have many interesting things ahead of us.

Ancient MacBook Air did slightly better with EFI/64-bit : it displayed the boot screen before freezing!

Note the white border at the bottom though.

@amanda Antar att kräver en windows-/linuxdator att installeras på, det går väl inte som parallellsystem ens på nya.macar? Det låter intressant iaf.

I’ve decided to put my money where my mouth is and donate $10 monthly to . I hope it will work on some hardware I can use in the near future and that someone finds a way to smoothly write user-facing applications using the standard API in Rust and then it’d practically be my dream OS.

Michael MJD also published a video about @haiku|‘s successor . You really need a to use that. It also has a 2k11/time bug where you can get past the year 2010. That was new to me. Despite that it is quite astonishing how responsive this old runs on old hardware. If you’re interested, try .

My goal is to eventually have a FLOSS OS for this machine that’s on par with early 00’s OS X or at least Mac OS 9.

I think my best hope is or , and that a reasonable timescale is maybe 5-10 years.
