I am just about to get a new development computer so I will wait until then 
before doing anything.

If you're testing on physical hardware, you'll need to use rune instead of dd.

https://github.com/haiku/rune
https://download.haiku-os.org/nightly-images/arm/

If you're testing on qemu-system-arm, you don't need rune.

I need to make a release and produce some portable libraries, however
rune should work out of the box once compiled on your system.

* Linux - Tested functional
* OS X - Should work? Untested.
* Windows - Should be able to prepare an image for the correct platform, but 
can't write directly to raw block device (yet)
