After some struggle I managed to create a full 32gb USB3 64bit bootable drive.
After running Software updater I try to install software with HaikuDepot, some work but most return error message like:
Fatal eror occured while installing package burnitnow: failed to commit transaction: The to be activated package “cdrtools-3.02-a09-1-x86_64.hpkg” does already exist. 0
or mostly:
Fatal eror occured while installing package yacreader: failed to commit transaction: The to be activated package “gmp-6.1.2.3-x86_64.hpkg” does already exist. 0
Please, what to do?

I swiped the USB and made a fresh install from a PC booted with the DVD.
Seems to work now. Must have screwed up things first time.
You can try to open a terminal and use the command pkgman -install name_of_the_package. If it works then the problem comes from HaikuDepot.
If it still doesn’t work, use pkgman -full-sync before retrying.
It seems packages were already there but not activated.
During your install, did you copy some packages manually to /boot/system/packages directory?
Dropping one two packages there it is ok and almost immediate but dropping dozens at once, your luck would be better rolling dice. Believe me, very bad idea.
I am new to Haiku so it is trial and error for me to find out how it works.
Made first a USB with Etcher and played around with it for a while trying to install programs in limited space with HaikuDepot. Problably it was already corrupt already when I made a full install to the new USB from this. What I remember ca 2500 packages was transfered then compared to 480 when I did a clean install from a DVD
