Haiku On DELL Inspiron 3000 Series

Tested on model: DELL Inspiron 15 (3542)
Intel Core i3-4030U 1.90Ghz
4GB Single Channel DDR3 SDRAM at 1600Mhz
500 SATA III HDD

Then i bought this machine one year back, the haiku was not possible to run on it. Yesterday i submitted a bug relating the problems of the boot process of Haiku on this machine, and after few hours everything seems to be working fine in the new nightly build. The problem was not a big one and it just temporary fixed. The Haiku guys are working really fast on fixing bugs.

I've got installed Windows and FreeBSD on that system. All systems were installed on the EFI GPT partitions. To boot these systems i've used rEFInd boot loader because, before was using Arch Linux on this machine, it left on the EFI partition. Currently Haiku does not support booting from GPT partition, so we need to wait a little bit for developers to finish it's support...
