Re: Drivers based on UEFI?

alexey2, have you looked at what Runtime Services are and what they are for? if you had, you'd have known, that there couldn't be even a question about some "drivers", based on them. anyone, interested, should read the UEFI specification and not some questionable articles.

Re: Drivers based on UEFI?

I think he means interaction between the OS and UEFI Boot Services. Using UEFI Boot Services in the kernel is not possible nor the former are meant for that purpose. While it's possible in theory, NT kernel is not suited to work with the boot services. The loader does call UEFI function ExitBootSer...

Re: Distros

doing it because you can, is a very bad reason. dark is absolutely right. also, you don't need to create a fork just to bundle "specific programs", not to mention - for adding themes. it's installable entities, that don't require you to compile the whole gigabytes worth project for adding ...

Re: Is there any software like Rufus for Linux?

Really?
Really. This thread should not belong to this subforum, whose topic scope is defined right below its name:
Here you can discuss ReactOS related topics.
lunix utilities relate to ReactOS related topics just as much as your love confessions.

Re: Is there any software like Rufus for Linux?

More of the many reasons I just love Mint/Mate.
I'm sure those things' forums would be happy to have your appreciation post over there, but how this ode and the thread overall do relate to the freaking "General Discuission and Feedback" of ReactOS, that's the question.

Re: Question about the FAQ

try it on qemu, you are "linuxer", so that's probably the best choice for linuxers, with that KVM and stuff. Or other emulator, that's how ROS now is being developed and tried. you are PeterX, from osdev right? :D so, you are a fan of Windows and clones, but use linux because Stallman said...

Re: reactos priority? or mess?

X512, you are a coder, if you are concerned with the stage of some critical parts of ROS, then unlike most of local complainers, you can help - just consider participating in fixing those horrendous defficiencies inside of ROS.

Re: Disk Drives vs. Mount Points ?.

Windows-versions inherit the odd system of disk drive letters from the old CP/M Unix-versions (Solaris, Linux, BSD, BeOS, MacOS X, NextStep, ...) don't have this nonelastic system of drive letters for addressing. The file system is here independent of the hardware. The hardware (disks, floppies, cd...

Re: Little idea about 64 bit problem

d1zt3mp3r is not one, who decides anything on ROS development direction, actually, there is no "underestimation" of the 64 bit version importance among those, who really decide something here, what is - the lack of developers. IIUC, there is only 1 real developer, who works on 64 bits - Ti...
