Add me to the list of Haiku developers using Linux (though I'm newly
converted and still have my BeOS dev box too.) On my fairly new Dell
Ubuntu box I can fully build the haiku.image in 13 minutes. It takes
hours on my older BeOS box. I find that for most things testing in a
VM is easier.
Though working on apps like ShowImage by building for and testing on
BeOS is easier in that case. But you still need to test those on Haiku
itself too.
I recently wrote a detailed email about how get a Haiku development
environment set up on Ubuntu Feisty. I will clean this up and post it
on the web-site soon too.

Getting makebootable to work was a bit of a nightmare though. :)
