Comment(by axeld):
Alpha 2 actually includes a device level cache for CDs - this makes
booting as well as installing Haiku from CD really fast on the machine I
tested it with. I haven't compared it to BeOS, but I don't remember it
being particularly fast, even though it contained much less software than
Haiku does.
With today's hardware, though, it's no wonder that Haiku can be built
faster than installed from CD: CDs are slow, and I can build a complete
Haiku image in less than 4 minutes.
Since BeOS cannot not run on your hardware, I wonder if you used a virtual
machine to install it?
In any case, Haiku should install pretty fast since alpha 2. If it doesn't
for you (you actually do not give any clue how long it takes for you),
there is probably something wrong.
