Hi Doru,

Later I will.
Meanwhile it would be nice to get working network driver and some hints, how to restart/setup the network.
I installed a Realtek driver, but cannot setup/restart the network via the Network application, even I configured to static. DHCP also does not work.
In opposite, linux is working that way.

The video performance seems good anyway, but until now I did not try to play video. I only checked some demos: teapot opengl, some other nice demos.
And this is only on a C1100 with usb drive.....

So, more to come..........

Regards,
István

Thanks István

I hope you will make network cards works.

For anybody else who wants to try Haiku on Fit-PC ( or another PC ) from usb stick:

- easier method to make a bootable usb stick with Haiku image on windows:

1. download USB Image Tool from alex website: http://www.alexpage.de/?page_id=41 and unzip
2. download RAW image of Haiku: http://www.haiku-os.org/get-haiku
( or nightly images here: http://haiku-files.org/raw/
3. extract image from archive
4. rename extension .image with .img ( example: haiku.img )
5. plug your USB stick into usb port
6. run USB Image Tool.exe / select USB device / Restore with selected haiku.img
7. restart your Fit-PC and boot from USB

This is the easier method to see how Haiku works.

Any another method, with Flashnul or dd program don't work for me.

regards
doru
