Humdinger 33f97c1093 Boot Options: Minor GUI string changes Under "Select Boot Volume" you can also select an older state to boot into: Rename to "Select Boot Volume/State". The title on the page to select an older state was "Select Haiku version". Since every un/install of any software package creates a "state" it's not actually the "Haiku version" but the overall state: Rename to "Select package activation state".

Haiku

Homepage | Mailing Lists | IRC Channels | Issue Tracker | API docs

Haiku is an open-source operating system that specifically targets personal computing. Inspired by the BeOS, Haiku is fast, simple to use, easy to learn and yet very powerful.

Goals

Sensible defaults with minimal configuration required.
Clean, clear, concise code.
Unified desktop environment.

Trying Haiku

Haiku provides pre-built nightly images and release images. Haiku is compatible with a large variety of hardware, but in case you don't want to "take the plunge" and install Haiku on bare metal, you can install it on a virtual machine (VM) instead. If you've never used a VM before, you can follow one of the "Emulating Haiku" guides.

Compiling Haiku

See ReadMe.Compiling.
