0.3.0 RC1 problems
by Brandon Turner 05 Jun '06

05 Jun '06

I cant seem to make a stable qemu install for the release, wmare works fine though. On the first boot to the installed desktop, it just shuts down after about 1 sec. I usually see the device wizard pop up for a sec and then it just turns off. Anyone else having thse problems? Any hints? Brandon

0.3.0 RC1
by WaxDragon 02 Jun '06

02 Jun '06

0.3.0 is now RC1. Hopefully Brandon will have time to put up RC1 on SF soon, but those inclined can check out a copy now. While I will allow a wallpaper to be added before release, anything else needs to be a bugfix against a bug in Bugzilla. WD -- ReactOS is a hub, follow the spokes and you'll immediately find absolutely everything you need to know about Windows. ReactOS is not just software, it's people. kjk_hyperion
