Thanks for the info! Interesting stuff indeed!

Just a few questions:

1. How do you install it? Is it a bootable ISO?

2. Which BeOS effort does this version belong to, out of all the different BeOS efforts out there?

3. What programs are found for this version and where do you find them? Is Firefox found? Python?
2x533MHz@544MHz, 2.0V
640MB PC100 memory
Realtek RTL-8139 NIC
Maxtor 6Y080L0 80GB hdd
Debian Linux stable with 2.4.8 kernel

Spoons. It's a bit broken.

1. The second link seems to work, and leads to a .zip

I should add at this point that I haven't tried this BeOS, so YMMV.

2. I suspect it's based on the free OS that Be Inc. released before they were sold to Palm. Previous BeOS DevEds have been.

3. No idea I'm afraid. But I know you can find both those proggies on www.bebits.com
