You may have more luck using FreeLoader to boot ReactOS. Download
http://reactos.csh-consult.dk/download.php?sid=FreeLoader-20040229-bochs.i38
6.tar.gz

Write it to a floppy disk using RawWrite or similar tool. RawWrite is at
http://uranus.it.swin.edu.au/~jn/linux/rawwrite.htm

Boot ReactOS using the floppy disk.
Note that this floppy disk will only boot ReactOS from the first partition
on the
first harddisk.
