Alright, I have the patch file and a very kind volunteer to host it. More to come on that. For those who need it, email me and I will send it back to you. This will work in the interim until we get a host for the the fixed archive or get BeBits to fix the one they link to. It's harder than I thought to find a willing host for a file over 300 MB in size, so this patch may be our best bet. Go figure.

There are loads of folks out there who have wasted entire days downloading these corrupted files and don't want the pain of doing it again. I personally have four copies from different locations, all corrupted.
Here is what I want to do for all of us. Anybody who has a copy of the patch file, email it to me at shanestroud1971@hotmail.com. I'm going to find a place to host it, seed that sucker on Torrent, BeShare, anywhere I can. I will distribute it. I will also work to find a home for an uncorrupted version of the whole BeOS Max distribution for the other folks who want it.
We cannot afford to let a corrupted install file drive people away from trying this OS. Let's keep BeOS alive by working together.

PM? Email sent. I knew someone would have the patch.
Oh, and here's an interesting issue. In Dano, PE, and DevEd, any APIC module enabled seems to kill the boot. Little lesson learned the hard way.
Thanks

Alright, I spent all night downloading the zip from BeShare. Someone deleted it mid way, or so it would seem. Then I get it here and the iso is corrupted. So, now I need the patch that Diver posted. It seems that site he posted it on wants a login. Little help?

None of these links work. If you are looking for this file, try BeShare - there is a Java program that lets you connect to BeShare from other operating systems. Here is a link: http://bryan.varnernet.com/archive/javashare.org/
Just search for the file, and you should find it - I did last night.

and press start button. After several seconds you could extract your zip without problems.
Disclamer:
This is "as is" software. It works here, but i can't garantee it would on yours.

So of course tools for reading ISO-9660 images will say its corrupt. Its a BFS image, so you have to burn it to disk and read it from within BeOS - or in the case of this, boot BeOS off it.

Ok what do you like to now?
how to burn BeOSMax?
BeOSMax has a .cue :)
A live CD are a CD that you can "run" programs in. In any BeOS distro (they all are decended from BeOS Pe) you can do this by hiting ctrl + alt +del and chose to load the desktop. the ones that says they are Live CD's have probably no swap and the installer don't load as default (so they are not probably the best to inistall from as in BeOS you get the same system as you are installing from.. if not the installer says otherways ).
Mail me if you have problem or questions about BeOS

in short, yes. :)
the boot images i linked to in the previous post can be used to boot an existing installation of BeOS or boot a BeOS CD, which can then be used to install.
if you use any of the boot images that begin with "untested_" please leave a comment at that blog. thanks and good luck.

Has links and some information for making boot disks (both floppy and bootable cd) for BeOS.
These were recently uploaded and will eventually have a nice interface.
For now, browse through the list and choose some floppies for your CPU, BeOS version(R5).
Remember there's also JavaShare (a BeShare compatible), which is a good way to get live community help.

I have noticed that some motherboards are not completely BeOS friendly. I can take an Intel CPU and a video card that works fine with BeOS, but when try them with a Dell Optiplex Gs motherboard BeOS will only loads in "safe mode".
So far my favorite BeOS system uses:
AMD Athlon running at 1 GHz with 256 MB RAM and an ATI PCI video card with Rage Theater Chipset 213RT1ZUA43. All video options are available with this chipset.
I have even compared two different ATI PCI video cards that use ATI Rage Theater chip sets.
ATI Rage Theater Chipset 213RT1ZUA43 works great.
ATI Rage Theater Chipset 213RT1ZUA41 did not work.
The quality of DVD movie play is very good when using the VLC media player. The only problem is that the newest DVD's such as "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" will not play, even with VLC's newest DVD version 0.7.0 player for BeOS.
My three children really like the game "Diamond Girl" that comes with the PE Max edition. They have not been able to get the game "Star fighter" to run at all. I later installed tetris version 1.1 written by Brian Tietz to make them happy.
BeOS works great with the correct hardware.
If you have trouble, do not give up. You should keep trying hardware combinations until you find a winning combination.
Please let me know if anyone finds my observations to be helpful, I will continue to test BeOS for a few more months.

I am a new user of BeOS 5 PE Max Edition (beta).
My three kids enjoy the games that are bundled into the package. They only wish it had a good tetris game.
Now several of my radio communications students have gained interest in BeOS too; since it may be a good choice for automation of our school radio station.
I am going to practice running BeOS on several more machines to finish evaluating the operating system.

"Max actually saved BeOS userbase and allowed lot of newcomers to approach BeOS."
This is certainly a very positive and important aspect of providing such a distro, but for some reason, backupwww, you chose to ignore this. How conveniet.
Until we see PalmOne (or Be Inc. for that matter) complain about PE-based distros, this is nothing more than flamebait.

There was no need reading your disclaimer on your site, because starting point of my comments was your information that beosmax.org is online and there will be a next release.
Long time ago I download the BeosMax on Sorceforge. It starts with "Welcome to BeOS 5 Max Edition (Codename:Zeus) - BeOS Max is based on BeOS 5 Personal Edition and is distributed for free." If you press the Install Button you will see the BeOS 5 Personal Edition LICENSE AGREEMENT. No Disclaimer or Max License from you.
It seems nobody who comment me in this talkback, notice the BeOS 5 Personal Edition LICENSE AGREEMENT. A joke about my nick, spequlation about personal hate and revenge seems to be much funnier. Hello folks, I don't want to explain you the License Agreement now and how important a License is. In the past, you can find a lot of spoken words about Max. Follow the Debug link and you will find only one place. There are english comments between german comments. From vasper, the License Agreemet and others. Notice! Everyone (newone or oldone in the BeOS community) who read the BeOS 5 Personal Edition LICENSE AGREEMENT in Max is allowed to ask questions to himself and to vasper at the places where vasper offers his Max. And thats what I have done. A new release will be a new situation but the illegal taste never leaves and was never gone.

It has been fun working on BeOS Max. I will be very happy to continue on with Haiku Max once it is ready and can be put it a distro.
As for backupwww, I know he is expressing his opinion, which I don't mind. But he should read the disclaimer on my site before accusing me of taking credit for Max. The only credit I take is of putting it together.
backupwww stay clean and don't p2p.

There other such distros around, even here at bebits.
But maybe that man is attacking not Vasper, but simple best of those distros.
I think it actually saved BeOS userbase and allowed lot of newcomers to approach BeOS.
What about Zeta and Haiku - lets see when both will go mature enough, and at least, when Zeta Demo CD is out - to let new people really estimate the OS.
Until that such distros is way for BeOS to stay alive (and even keep/create consumer base for Zeta) - at least it looks bit more legal way than using Zeta torrents.

If a few years ago vasper wouldn't have released BeOS Max, I wouldn't have return to BeOS. And I think I'm not alone. Vasper's work is truly apreciated. I don't think neithar that this is the right place to complain, nor that people wants to hear you.

Do you own anything that is being distributed with BeOS Max? Are you representing anyone who has ownership? Are you a copyright / intellectual property lawyer?
From what I can tell, you are none of the above.
What grounds do you have for making such demands? The property owner is the one that needs to make claims.

The words “then please DON'T download it” can only be from a person who don't have a financial risk and keeps no people in work. Sad that Max isn't based on your own work. Companies like Mircosoft, yellowTab and Linux Distributions work with negative feedback. You will never hear this words from them.

The names "Max Beta" or "Max Final" are unimportant. Status of Zeta is unimportant too since RC1 Zeta is on the market and erveryone can buy it.
Beside the work of yT/Haiku and and the contents of BeOS 5 Personal Edition LICENSE AGREEMENT a public Max is wrong. You know the content of the License Agreement.
To add the packages from Bebits isn't development and to add the newest packages from developers does not make software to a final. In the best case of Max it will only be your last personal BeOS Installation. Call it as you like. Nevertheless your acting remains wrong and your promise loses its basis.
Yellowtab creates a "demo cd" with the plan people change to Zeta. It's not your business.
If you want that people change to Haiku, do the hard way like Haiku. The Haiku team will only bring a complete public version if there are no questions about legality. You know the questions about Max and others.
Delete the Max from Bebits and teach people to build up their own BeOS R5 PE/Pro. Then they will get the chance to see BeOS basics and advantages step by step. After that they can handle released Haiku packages and give important feedback to the developers. People who really want to change to BeOS, Haiku or Zeta do not need a Max wich is falling down from the Olymp.

Because Zeta R1 is almost ready, I will release V3.1 Final that I have promised and then I will stop with development of Max. I don't see how this contradicts my words. Zeta R1 is not out yet, I am a proude owner of Zeta Neo though... V3.1 is Final because I want everybody else to change to either Haiku, or Zeta R1.

"In fact, I am helping Professional Software Development since I keep the platform alive until there is a viable alternative, and Gobe, Xentronix and other companies can sell a product that HAS a platform to work on. I have even said I will drop the development of Max once Zeta R1 is out (even said it to Berndt)." - Vassilis 'vasper' Perantzakis
