BeOS installed?

I was wondering if anyone has attempted to load BeOS on this little jewel yet? I haven't received mine yet, but its on the way and I'll be trying it. I was just curious to see if it was possible or not. BeOS seems to work better for a poweron/poweroff application (like a car MP3 player) then WinDoze does... Up in about 20secs or so and you can kill it with turning off the key and the OS still keeps going with no apparent problems.

Welp, after getting mine yesterday and installing the header, I decided to see if it would boot with a Virgin netpliance HD and it loaded up with little or no problems. So I decided to try BeOS 5.0 pro tonight. Alas it won't even come out of the Gateway logo screen and show anything. Guess it doesn't like the HW that this little jewel has. Too bad since its my favorite on these things (works great on my I/Openers)... Probably wouldn't have any touch screen drivers anyway. Looks like its on to try ME and see what its like... If anyone has any ideas let me know...

Thanks
