The RISC OS build zips are 2.4MB and it's statically link to all libraries and the zip includes all external resources. > You can try the pre-alpha Haiku image in qemu/vmware: > http://www.haiku-os.org/downloads Right, I'll try to give this a try over Christmas. > Currently it must be unzipped to /boot and I should probably add a > symlink to avoid making one manually in ~/config/be/Applications I > suppose. OK. I'll probably work on redesigning the download section first, so there will be plenty of time to get that worked out. > If you come on #haiku and ask I'm sure someone with an eeePC can make > you a photo of it running NS in Haiku :) OK, good thanks!

Is the following OK: --- François is a BeOS fan and Haiku developer. He started porting NetSurf to BeOS to fill the void between Links and Firefox, and to replace the closed-source NetPositive as default browser in Haiku. He's always rushing to fix C89 breakages since BeOS binaries must be built using gcc 2.95 because of C++ ABI compatibility. Currently François builds under ZETA (BeOS R6), and tests under Haiku both on real hardware and in QEMU. --- Just tweaked it slightly for English.
