The best way is to use VMware, make a new virtual PC, gibt it a HDD and partition and format that with Win98.

Use this PC as a copy original and work with a copy of that. Makes life much easier...

How?

An easy way to avoid the nonsense with the first 2 errors is to boot a new virtual machine from CD with Win98. Make a partition with, say, 2 GigaByte. Make it dynamic. Do NOT allocate the space immediately and do NOT make separate files of 2GB max. This method make small files for a start and avoids...

>VM Player and VM Server are both free >products And they are DIFFERENT products! I use VMware Workstation, commercial version. The problems are not caused by the VMware base, but by bugs in the ReactOS routines. The first bug is the improper handling of the partitioning. The second bug is the impro...

>If If you were a programmer, you would know that the BASE has to be fixed first. The base is the running installation on VM. I tried to follow a working path, i.e. try to install the same way you did. There are several bugs, one of them not recognizing the partition, then not formatting it. Giving ...

A progammer inserts visible milestones. So the exact state of the machine prior to the error is known.

partition signature != 55AA_

Wrong.

Wrong. The Wizard DOES USE parameters.

You STILL did not give the parameters.

What are the parameters you used for installation on VM?

Only with those parameters can we compare the situation and try to find out the cause of malfunctioning.

I just registered a new account to test it and it worked fine for me, so I'm not sure what your issue is. If you can't make out the letters composed of smaller characters, then get on IRC and ask the web admin to offer an alternative. "Various parameters" don't tell us anything. Unless yo...

Please, DO give us the DETAILS! There are only a few parameters. Why is it so damned complicated to make you understand that we need these parameters? It is not US who makes a mistake. It is not US who made this shitty registration procedure for this forum. The idea of the registration is simple, bu...

Thanks. But I don't have that.

And the question still is: How did they install in on VMware? That is not secret, I hope...
