Just thought I'd float this question here as I've had little response elsewhere - Haiku has a raw hdd image that they apparently build every night.

I was wondering if anyone had a suggestion as to how I might write this image to a drive. Thoughts?

Oddly I would think there are 50 or so ways to do this.

An easy way might be to use the easyvmx site to make a vm. You use the hd image of haiku.

You might use that hd image as part of a qemu vm too. Might be the most simple solution.

I think you could also rename it image.be and copy it with the /b binary slash in a beos PE install. Might have to have the proper zbeos. a dano or zeta boot might boot it properly.


I guess you could use a max or developers edition .cue sheet to burn it to a cd.

As with most beos installs if you have on beos running you can use the "installer" to seek out and install any mountable install.

I'd bet there are many more good ideas.

I read it wrong and answer it wrong too. So get off my case you goober.
