Haiku OS running under VirtualBox and Mac OS X
Link: http://haiku-os.org
You're an old BeOS user who's been waiting patiently for Haiku to finish up. In the meantime you want to check out what they've been up to. Just one problem, you're on a Mac and don't want to buy vmware just to try it out.
- First head to the virtual box website and install virtualbox.
- Next head over to The Haiku website and go into the downloads section. You will want to download the latest Raw image.
Once the image is downloaded and unzipped you will want to open your terminal and run the following commands (tweak for your environment).
$ cd /Applications/VirtualBox.app/Contents/MacOS
$./VBoxManage convertdd ~/Desktop/haiku-alpha.image ~/Library/VirtualBox/HardDisks/haiku.vdi
You can now add the converted disk image into VirtualBox and boot Haiku.

Hi, it was nice to see someone successfully got to run Haiku on OSx.
I followed your steps but still get the no bootable error message. VB doesn't recognize .vdi unless I ask for all files to be read in the source dialogue box.
I must be missing something.
