[ros-dev] ROS Livecd issue

[Muguntharaj Subramanian]

Thanks a lot Samuel and all who have responded,
Will try that option.  Meanwhile I tried using QEMU and was able to boot
reactos using QEMU.

Next I will be trying to build in ubuntu and also going thro the documents
in the reactos - hope to start contributing patches soon.

Regards,
Mugunth
