I finally got haiku booting!
Before it would not boot (would just restart instantly.
This was due to a bad ram stick and my 4850X2 being really really weird (Burned card)
Booting off a quad core Phenom II (Soon to be Hexacore) 955 BE OCāed to 300FSB x 12 with two 5770 running in crossfire mode, booting up Haiku (vesa mode ofcourse)
Reason Iām posting this is because for some weird reason, my mouse is really twitchy.
I thought it was because of me running Haiku in vesa mode, but after running chart flawless in 60 FPS, I suspect itās an issue with the USB
Using a m4a79t motherboard, it detects Ethernet and sound also (which was very surprising )
Catch you on the 10th of may
I hope the mouse issue is fixed in the next release!
By the way, I think that you can increase the boot speed by tweaking with what the floppy drive does at boot, if you have one installed. Iāll update you later; mine goes from 7s boot to about 25s because some BIOS thing is set.
Wellā¦ I donāt exactly know the word Iām looking for (not an English person), but I think itās something along the word āerratic mouse movementā ?
Changing the mouse settings doesnāt work.
It behaves like thereās a weak signal
And I donāt have a FDD
Itās also set as āDisabledā in the bios
I get the weird mouse too on one of my systems. I think it is most likely due to shared interupts. Thatās one of the long-standing big things left to be done in Haiku for R1. Itās not going to be in Alpha 2, but is scheduled to make an appearance in the next release.
starsseed, there are two different versions of Grub. The method described in your link shows how to make Haiku boot with Grub 0.97 & earlier. Grub 1.9x requires different method.
How did you add the entries to Grub 1.98?
Iām trying that with Linux Mint but itās not working.
Could you please share the code for it.
Thanks in advance.
