from Adrien Destugues:
The last major activity on the ARM port was during GSoC 2014, with the
beagle-xm port starting the kernel and then not finding the boot
partition. We still don't have support for USB nor SD mass storage on
ARM, one of the two is needed to boot further in normal ways.
Alternatives are network booting or using the "NOR" driver which would
allow loading a root filesystem in RAM.
I remember a previous discussion about network booting, and there was mention
of a Haiku-specific problem relating to the file system and extended attributes.
So what is the current status of network bootability for Haiku, either on ARM
device or i386 or amd64?
Feel free to change the subject line if this deviates from the original thread
topic; I don't want to be accused of hijacking.
