haiku image content

Forum thread started by JimBodkins on Fri, 2008-02-29 17:23

Hi,

This has probably been asked, but ... I would like to see a 'basic' distro of Haiku that didnt require additional downloads. Specifically to include common tools like ssh and a functional compiler and tool chain.

One download.

Thanks.

P.S.
Do you have a browser? I havent found it yet if you do.

Due to memory issues, the compiler doesn't quite work yet. Though, it will soon. If you simple want to test a "full distro" try the Weekly vmware image at Haikuware.

It work well for what i need, and if things continue forward Haiku may be able to compile stuff soon.

Not true, the latest compiler binaries for R5 work pretty successfully. There are still memory leaks in Haiku, so compiling the entire 3GB Haiku tree did require a few reboots, but any normal-sized programs should compile without too many issues.
