Another article on this site already describes the basics of building Haiku on Linux. Since my distribution of choice is Ubuntu, I decided to get Haiku building on it and then provide a detailed step-by-step guide for others to follow.

I performed these steps on a fresh Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn) install, but they should be similar for other versions and probably the same for most Debian-based distributions.
