   Hi all,   
      
   	I am trying to port some apps to BeOS. Nothing really big, just   
   checking. What distribution would you recommend me ?   
      
   	I tried the BeOS Personal Edition R5.0.3, but gcc/g++ seems kind of old   
   (2.96-beos??). I tried to install Developper Edition 1.1 (from   
   beosonline.com) but I got kernel crash a boot time (strange since BeOS   
   5.0.3 was working really great).   
      
   	I have 1G of memory, and SATA disk. But again BeOS R5.0.3 was working   
   /almost/ perfectly.   
      
   	BTW, is it possible to copy ASCII file from ext3fs to BeOS ? I tried   
   but the file was completely screw up, whereas the zip file was perfect ??   
      
   	And last but not least I haven't been able to set up the networking. I   
   send a request here:   
   	http://forum.beosjournal.org/viewtopic.php?p=6470   
   But I am not sure it's alife.   
      
   Comments very welcome,   
   Mathieu a beginer in the BeOS world.
