(open)BeOS

[Cyberus]

As you might have read, I'm thinking of going travelling soon. And I want to leave one of my computers in the hands of a friend. Before I go I want to install BeOS, to see what its like and to let him play around with it. I want to install it on my Power Mac clone, since OS8.5 has done my head in.

Any experts out there give me some pointers, and I mean BASIC ones? I've looked at openbeos.org, but am still none the wiser as to how I go about installing.

Thanks very much guys, helpful replies as usual.
The Mac clone I'm running is a 604/132.

I will bookmark the links you've posted and see how I get on. I suppose I should keep an eye on ebay? As to lack of apps...hmm, perhaps you guys are right. I just wanted to run something instead of MacOS on the machine, perhaps I might look into Linux and think about BeOS on a PC (I only own this PII laptop and I don't like to mess with it tho')

Warm regards

It's the fact that this is my internet machine and I don't like to 'fuck with it, as I NEED the internet :-)
