preinstall a program in reactos

Post by manuel »

Greetings:

It would like me that they could say to me about how preinstall a a program in reactos when a version is compiled, and of that way when obtaining iso already goes the installed program, maybe the way more easy it is to use portable programs thus to "install" inside the folders of reactos, in the structure to compile, but that I must do to also such program is included in the reactos compilated version, thanks.

You need to edit: \ReactOS\boot\bootdata\packages\reactos.dff to add files.
And for Reg Keys: hive*.inf in \ReactOS\boot\bootdata
ReactOS is still in alpha stage, meaning it is not feature-complete and is recommended only for evaluation and testing purposes.

@EmuandCo

Isn't reactos.dff autogenerated at the moment?

No it was reverted.

Well if you wanna add a big folder, you have to add all single files in there for now. Sry

You cant' just add program files to reactos and hope they run.
Installers do many weird and wonderful things. You have no idea what an installer might do and adding files will only work for the most simple of programs
