Are you using a USB keyboard? USB keyboard is not supported yet and will result in the AllocConsole error message during install. i have a usb keyboard that has a ps/2 port adapter. My box has ports for the keyboard and mouse so I'm using them instead of usb. I did the same with the mouse (using th...

during install I get:

AllocConsole() failed (Status=0xc0000001)

so instead I did it manually. so how do update manually?!

should have posted this under my original thread. the reason I need to do this manually is because I get an installation error when using the install cd. I can run a livecd, qemu fine. is it because I have a sata drive? I'm using XP, so I took the 0.2.8 qemu image and copied it to the fat32 partitio...

The next question is how to update the files manually to the latest build?

I'm using XP, so could I just move files over from the iso...opening the cab file and just copy files over to where they belong under d:\reactos?

I may be getting ahead of things with the idea... but its a good one i think :) and as reactos gets towards 0.3.0 i belive weve already passed the point where reactos can be built on reactos so it wouldnt have to rely entierly on prebuilt updates is this actually true? has anyone built reactos just...

Duhh... I asked you to change the disk, should have asked you to change the partition. How does this work: SystemPath=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\ReactOS that was it. I'll go and post a tutorial on this because I think there are many people who want to check out reactos but the installation...

I have a 160GIG HD with XP on the first partition (as drive c:) and a second 30GIG partition that I want to put ReactOS on (drive d:). I made the second 30gig partition fat32 using the XP computer management utility. Then I copied the qemu image to the d: drive using WinImage (as someone else mentio...

Their inability to see past the superficial GUI is the genius and power of ReactOS. The team you have today deserves to take credit for their work on the core operating system. This is your chance to do it. This is your time. The world will never "get" unix. this is hard for many unix user...

By the time people finally understand what you have really accomplished, you will have made history together. Your work thus far sends out a pretty clear message that you will succeed. Of all the developers in the world, you as a team are doing what has eluded so many others outside of Microsoft. Th...
