If you have access to a PC you can use these instructions. If not, let
me know what you used and I will add it to this wiki:
http://haikuware.com/wikis/doku.php?id=tutorials:install-haiku-to-usb-flash-drive-from-windows
The drive itself is likely to be just where it would be on a BSD system
/dev/disk3 <- you can get this from either "About my Fashion Toy" or in
the Disk Utility program.
dd directly on the "slice" will give a "Resource busy" message but so you
need to unmount the volume but not the device. This is best done in the
Disk Utility by right-clicking on the volume (it will have a
user-assignable name) but not the drive and then
... mailer gets very keen ...
dd if=haiku-nightly-anyboot.image of=/dev/disk3
Note I had to use sudo for this step. I'll let you know how I get on with
it when it finishes writing.
