🦾 BeOS-Inspired Haiku OS Gets ARM64 Port Booting

「 HaikuOS can now boot on ARM64 but so far that is being done under QEMU. Real hardware support is ongoing but at least Haiku OS can be brought up under QEMU virtualization on ARM64 」

BeOS-Inspired Haiku OS Gets ARM64 Port Booting

Over the course of March there was much progress made on the ARM64 port of Haiku OS, the open-source operating system serving as the spiritual successor to BeOS.

Haiku Isn’t Just For X86 Anymore, Boots On ARM In QEMU

Ever since it was called OpenBeOS, Haiku has targeted the x86 platform. That makes good sense: it’s hard enough maintaining a niche system on ubiquitous hardware. But x86 isn’t the only…

Hackaday

Phase 2 took a step forward. Someone else fixed a threading issue and that made everything pass on the HEAD of the git repository for #Chez #scheme on my #haikuos build box. So I've just submitted the PR to the upstream project to re-establish Haiku support in Chez. Let's see how that goes.

Reminder, the #haikuports version of Chez Scheme is already available.

I've done a bit of experimenting getting #racket to build, but I'm not there yet. #Akku looks promising too.

Haiku is making visible progress on ARM64, with a mostly stable QEMU port and working images expected after further package rebuilds.

After the update on Qt (6.1.03) for Haiku finished it was time to update our KF6 to 6.25.0.
Those are now available for 32bit and 64bit.

A few applications there after updated to 25.12.3 (read kirigami/qtquick related rendering), and are on par with current release. In the screenshot Tokodon (using at the moment to write this post) 25.12.3 with Qt6.10.3 and KF6 6.25.0).

why is there no #HaikuOS server image with serial console *whines*

Qt6.10.3 is released to the Haiku public now (64bit and 32bit)! This brings us up to current status on Qt6.
After having spend a few years I guess on updating this from 6.8.0 up to 6.11.0 (last one still has some issues) it was time to release the latest stable here.

I hope you enjoy the update!
