(maybe this gives somebody a clue and an extra opportunity to test an solve this issue) Unfortunately I haven't had the time to test a VM image of the R1 so I can't tell yet what that resulted in. When building Haiku before R1 myself I managed to get a working Haiku VM under Q(EMU). I suspect rebuilding Haiku at this moment would still give a working VM in Q. It would be very nice if this problem could be solved from within Haiku, but given the replies in this thread I fear this will not be the case. Regards, Arnold
