Building Freeloader
by Phillip Susi 03 Apr '05

03 Apr '05

Hey Brian, I've been having all kinds of weird problems getting freeloader installed and working in a boot drive image for qemu. I seem to remember you used to have to build it with djgpp instead of mingw for some odd reason. I think it had something to do with mingw's ld clobbering something up when you asked it to output a binary flat file instead of a PE image. Is this still the case? Was that issue never resolved?

Re: [ros-svn] [ea] 14479: WinTrust.dll: Update EXPORTS table

Hello, --- ea(a)svn.reactos.com wrote: > Updated files: > trunk/reactos/lib/wintrust/wintrust.def Tappak if you are watching can you relicense wintrust as BSD v2 or LGPL/GPL? If not it will have to be removed from SVN as it has a BSD 1 license header which is GPL incompatible. Same thing with the wintrust.h Thanks Steven __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

It seems that Longhorn drops the GINA. Is it confirmed? Is it due to a broken (=insecure) design that can not be fixed? If so, should we spend time implementing GINA? Emanuele

Re: [ros-svn] [sedwards] 14429: nevermind. It helps to do a make bootcd in the terminal that has the value and /usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/games:/opt/www/htdig/bin:/usr/lib/java/bin:/usr/lib/java/jre/bin:/opt/kde/bin:/usr/lib/qt/bin to mingw defined.

mingw32-linux is not setting ARCH=i386, this breaks make bootcd for it. (although there is an easy workaround) Kind regards, Usurp (aka Sylvain Petreolle) humans are like computers, yesterday the BIOS was all - today its just a word

I was looking at some of your code a while back (RAM Disk Driver) and was wondering if we should add support to it to be a general purpose RAM driver while keeping suppport for loading from bochs images as it does now.

Hi, it seems we have now a file en.rc and En.rc. This will not work on windows. - Hartmut weiden(a)svn.reactos.com wrote: >corrected file name so it matches the include in slayer.rc > > >Added files: >trunk/reactos/lib/shellext/slayer/En.rc > >_______________________________________________ >Ros-svn mailing list >Ros-svn(a)reactos.com >http://reactos.com:8080/mailman/listinfo/ros-svn > > > >

Developers are really what is most important to this project right now. I'm going to stop short of chanting "developers! developers! developers!" ;) Cheers Jason

Hi all Jh sent me a better look: http://reactos.com/newsite/reactos_index.html I think it looks better! I've also reworded our slogan at the top to read what Steven suggested. Magnus: I'm sorry but your critism is not constructive! Which links do you want on the frontpage that aren't already there? You cannot link to everything on the frontpage either! Cheers Jason

And needs an SVN account ;) I'm glad to see everyone kept the project going without me, I am impressed with the progress! Hopefully now I can get back to contributing.

We maintain a database of all of the free Win32 software on SourceForge and try to get them all to use MSI or NSIS to package them. Thanks Steven __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
