Yesterday...

The wiki is gone and I couldn't find the install instructions and google/s 
spider has yet to crawl the new site.

Am I missing something in the steps below?

Downloaded a Haiku Image from haikuhost 19995.
Decompressed it.
Formatted the target partition
    mkbfs  /dev/disk/scsi/0/0/0/0_6 openbeos
Mounted it.
Made it bootable
    makebootable /openbeos
Mounted the image
    mountimage ~/haiku.image
Copied the files on to the new partition.
    cp -R /Haiku/* /openbeos
Reboot

It used to work.

Grub complains about error 12 "an error occurred that isn't defined by any 
other error.".
It will boot Zeta with the same config text.
