r/haikuOS

I have cheapest Threadripper, 64GB and Intel B580. Tried to install Haiku, but DVD boot could not bring me to install GUI. I can try again to make screenshot, if needed. Latest Haiku r5.

Hello everyone,

I’m Mahesh, currently learning DSA in C++ (completed around 40%) and very interested in contributing to C++ based open-source projects.

I’m still a beginner in open source, but I genuinely want to learn the workflow properly, contribute consistently, and add value to the organization/community over time.

Right now my main goal is to:

• understand how real open-source contributions work,
• learn collaboration and contribution workflow,
• interact with experienced contributors,
• and improve technically through real projects.

So I joined here to start contributing and learn step-by-step. Even small guidance regarding where to start, beginner-friendly issues, documentation, setup, or contribution process would help me a lot.

I’m ready to learn, stay consistent, and contribute seriously.

Looking forward to connecting and contributing with the community.

Does Haiku support parallel port Zip 100 drive? Or if not, are there some drivers for it available?
Thanks in advance!
