I didn't install it on this machine, but have an old notebook, which also runs BeOS and I used to build on BeOS and install from BeOS. However this notebook is rather slow and since the desktop happend to end up in my hand I would love to use the desktop. Actual installation on the desktop HDD was done by the build system from an Ubuntu install with the install-haiku target. The image on the USB stick is a dd from a haiku-image build done on BeOS. >> Since I had no clue I tried to boot from an USB stick, which gives me a >> totally different result.

Nope, noe serial port ;-( neither on the desktop nor on the notebook. Unless I missed something and serial output is available over usb, no ... Cheers, Rossi
