Loading ReactOS from Floopy
by Lucio Diaz 18 Nov '04

18 Nov '04

I am working in a Howto for installing ReactOS, so i tried the diferent ways for instalating it, but in recent builds there was no option to install the Freeloader in a diskete (XP machine here) in the Real Hardware instalation. I tried downloading the binaries and copying them to C:\ReactOS , download the Freeloader image and RAWwrite it in a diskete, but i could not get the configuration screen (it worked for me, but maybe not for others without configuration options) Is there any way i could install the Freeloader image and still have a "normal" configuration phase of ReactOS.? This will help convince people to install reactOS, not having to touch the Boot sector for a ReactOS insatllation regardless the OS you have installed would be great. I imagine something like this: -------------------------------------- 1) Download the ReactOS binaries (8 Megs) from sourceforge 2) Use Winzip to extract them to C:\ that way a Folder called C:\ReactOS will be created with all the reactos files(It must be a FAT32 partition). 3) Download the Program Rawwrite for windows and extract it to any folder you wish. 4) Download the Freeloader Floopy Disk image and extract it to any folder you wish. 5) Insert a new formated Floopy Disk and Execute Rawwrite: 6) Select the image file from the folder you extracted the Freeloader: 7) Press write, and wait till the program ends writing the image to the Floopy. 8) Restart the computer booting from the Floopy Disk: ---------------------------------------- This is the option i would like as user. Copy the program to a folder, and the use a Diskete to load it. Usefull both in 95/98/NT/XP and Linux, with minimal risks for people who fears burning their HD. But the question, Can this be done?. I have downloaded the source code but i am lost. Can someone help me with this? Thanks in advance, Lucio Diaz. ______________________________________________ Renovamos el Correo Yahoo!: ¡100 MB GRATIS! Nuevos servicios, más seguridad http://correo.yahoo.es

NDIS suggestion
by eric.kohl＠t-online.de 18 Nov '04

18 Nov '04

Hi! Isn't it possible to call NdisIStartAdaper (in ndis/miniport.c) when the miniport driver recieves an IRP_MJ_PNP/IRP_MN_START_DEVICE request? Right now it is called from NdisIAddDevice. This means the miniport device is started before resource lists are assigned to the NICs device node. NdisMQueryAdaperResources and NdisMPciAssignResources cannot be implemented oe won't work because of this. Regards, Eric

What is difference in installation procedure w/wo DGG, KDBG set ?
by David Kredba 17 Nov '04

For a many month I am unable to install ReactOS with DBG=1 and KDBG=1 enabled. On the same hardware, version with DBG=0 and KDBG=0 installs and runs fine.

PLease find the status of the Reactos support for the Nic Realtek8139 as per my testing. 1) Detection of Pci Bus2 = Fixed The problem of enumerating cards located on PCI BUS 2 has been fixed by Eric Khol .

In VMware, ReactOS eats up all available CPU time. Does anyone have an idea why? Does it also do this on real hardware? Casper

Hi, this changes breaks the handling of exceptions if KDB isn't set. In KiDispatchException the variable Action is preinitialized with kdContinue.

Our ne2000 driver and tcpip
by art yerkes 14 Nov '04

14 Nov '04

I found the bug in our ne2000 driver that perplexed filip. The bug was that the meaning of the PACKET_HEADER part in ne2000 that was skipped was a simple header put on each packet to determine what buffer page would be used next. This header is only 4 bytes and has nothing to do with the ethernet frame header. I've now factored in the ethernet frame header and made tcpip work the right way, that is to remove consideration of the ethernet frame header at layers above lan in the receive pipe. This should make all adapters work the same way for larger packets (and ne2000 now work right). I found few references to how this actually works so I could still be wrong, but I'm going on what filip said and this: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/openh323/pwlib/tools/PacketVxD/epacke… Which basically confirms filip's opinion. Please try it out. -- Here's a simple experiment. Stand on a train track between two locomotives which are pushing on you with equal force in opposite directions. You will exhibit no net motion. None the less, you may soon begin to notice that something important is happening. -- Robert Stirniman

ReactOS Versions
by Rick Langschultz 12 Nov '04

12 Nov '04

When ReactOS is built and runs windows executables stabily I think we should have a program for windows that will let you customize the platform like windows ce and compile it with all the features you want. I think that it would be a great idea because of different types of systems such as PBX/VOIP servers, application servers, and domain name servers. This would allow security to be integrated into ReactOS by limiting programs allowing open ports, and Denial of service attacks. Maybe even support for multiple architectures like SH, ARM, X86, AMD64, PPC??? With FAT, FAT32, NTFS, XFS, EXT3, EXT2, and many others. Maybe even a rom based os. Please tell me what you all think.

taskmgr crashes in regobj.c - CmiObjectParse on Virtual PC
by Theodor Willax 12 Nov '04

12 Nov '04

Hi, I'm getting repeatedly kernel crashes in regobj.c - CmiObjectParse (line 168). To reproduce the crash start task manager with a right click on the taskbar, minimize this instance of taskmanager and start a new one. Here the code ---- else { if ((FoundObject->KeyCell->Flags & REG_KEY_LINK_CELL) && !((Attributes & OBJ_OPENLINK) && (EndPtr == NULL))) { DPRINT("Found link\n"); RtlInitUnicodeString(&LinkPath, NULL); ---- FoundObject->KeyCell is NULL. Does anybody else have the same problem? I've attached two screenshots of the BSODs. Clean compile of last cvs snapshot.

Debug output before lockup, there seems to be a double print out, before just one every KernelTime, and the KernelTime looks like it had stopped, (KERNEL32:mem/global.c:412) Memory Load: 14 (ex/sysinfo.c:964) SystemFullMemoryInformation (ex/sysinfo.c:972) PID: 1, KernelTime: 4266465 PFFree: 65536 PFUsed: 0 MC_CACHE 22993, MC_USER 4858, MC_PPOOL 1079, MC_NPPOOL 7069, MmStats.NrFreePages 217935 (KERNEL32:mem/global.c:412) Memory Load: 14 (ex/sysinfo.c:964) SystemFullMemoryInformation (ex/sysinfo.c:972) PID: 1, KernelTime: 4266465 PFFree: 65536 PFUsed: 0 MC_CACHE 23009, MC_USER 4864, MC_PPOOL 1079, MC_NPPOOL 7069, MmStats.NrFreePages 217913 (KERNEL32:mem/global.c:412) Memory Load: 14 (ex/sysinfo.c:964) SystemFullMemoryInformation (ex/sysinfo.c:972) PID: 1, KernelTime: 4266465 PFFree: 65536 PFUsed: 0 MC_CACHE 23009, MC_USER 4864, MC_PPOOL 1079, MC_NPPOOL 7069, MmStats.NrFreePages 217913 (KERNEL32:mem/global.c:412) Memory Load: 14 (ex/sysinfo.c:964) SystemFullMemoryInformation (ex/sysinfo.c:972) PID: 1, KernelTime: 4266471 PFFree: 65536 PFUsed: 0 MC_CACHE 23025, MC_USER 4870, MC_PPOOL 1079, MC_NPPOOL 7069, MmStats.NrFreePages 217891 (KERNEL32:mem/global.c:412) Memory Load: 14 (ex/sysinfo.c:964) SystemFullMemoryInformation (ex/sysinfo.c:972) PID: 1, KernelTime: 4266471 PFFree: 65536 PFUsed: 0 MC_CACHE 23025, MC_USER 4870, MC_PPOOL 1079, MC_NPPOOL 7069, MmStats.NrFreePages 217891 (KERNEL32:mem/global.c:412) Memory Load: 14 (ex/sysinfo.c:964) SystemFullMemoryInformation (ex/sysinfo.c:972) PID: 1, KernelTime: 4266474 PFFree: 65536 PFUsed: 0 MC_CACHE 22065, MC_USER 4876, MC_PPOOL 1079, MC_NPPOOL 7069, MmStats.NrFreePages 218845 (KERNEL32:mem/global.c:412) Memory Load: 13 (ex/sysinfo.c:964) SystemFullMemoryInformation (ex/sysinfo.c:972) PID: 1, KernelTime: 4266474 PFFree: 65536 PFUsed: 0 MC_CACHE 22065, MC_USER 4876, MC_PPOOL 1079, MC_NPPOOL 7069, MmStats.NrFreePages 218845 (KERNEL32:mem/global.c:412) Memory Load: 13 (ex/sysinfo.c:964) SystemFullMemoryInformation (ex/sysinfo.c:972) PID: 1, KernelTime: 4266474 PFFree: 65536 PFUsed: 0 MC_CACHE 22081, MC_USER 4882, MC_PPOOL 1079, MC_NPPOOL 7069, MmStats.NrFreePages 218823 (KERNEL32:mem/global.c:412) Memory Load: 13 (ex/sysinfo.c:964) SystemFullMemoryInformation (ex/sysinfo.c:972) PID: 1, KernelTime: 4266474 PFFree: 65536 PFUsed: 0 MC_CACHE 22081, MC_USER 4882, MC_PPOOL 1079, MC_NPPOOL 7069, MmStats.NrFreePages 218823 (KERNEL32:mem/global.c:412) Memory Load: 13 (ex/sysinfo.c:964) SystemFullMemoryInformation (ex/sysinfo.c:972) PID: 1, KernelTime: 4266474 PFFree: 65536 PFUsed: 0 MC_CACHE 22097, MC_USER 4888, MC_PPOOL 1079, MC_NPPOOL 7069, MmStats.NrFreePages 218801 (KERNEL32:mem/global.c:412) Memory Load: 13 (ex/sysinfo.c:964) SystemFullMemoryInformation (ex/sysinfo.c:972) PID: 1, KernelTime: 4266474 PFFree: 65536 PFUsed: 0 MC_CACHE 22097, MC_USER 4888, MC_PPOOL 1079, MC_NPPOOL 7069, MmStats.NrFreePages 218801 (KERNEL32:mem/global.c:412) Memory Load: 13 (ex/sysinfo.c:964) SystemFullMemoryInformation (ex/sysinfo.c:972) PID: 1, KernelTime: 4266474 PFFree: 65536 PFUsed: 0 MC_CACHE 22113, MC_USER 4889, MC_PPOOL 1079, MC_NPPOOL 7069, MmStats.NrFreePages 218784 (KERNEL32:mem/global.c:412) Memory Load: 13 (ex/sysinfo.c:964) SystemFullMemoryInformation (ex/sysinfo.c:972) PID: 1, KernelTime: 4266474 PFFree: 65536 PFUsed: 0 MC_CACHE 22113, MC_USER 4889, MC_PPOOL 1079, MC_NPPOOL 7069, MmStats.NrFreePages 218784 (KERNEL32:mem/global.c:412) Memory Load: 13 (ex/sysinfo.c:964) SystemFullMemoryInformation (ex/sysinfo.c:972) PID: 1, KernelTime: 4266474 PFFree: 65536 PFUsed: 0 MC_CACHE 22129, MC_USER 4900, MC_PPOOL 1079, MC_NPPOOL 7069, MmStats.NrFreePages 218757 (KERNEL32:mem/global.c:412) Memory Load: 13 (ex/sysinfo.c:964) SystemFullMemoryInformation (ex/sysinfo.c:972) PID: 1, KernelTime: 4266474 PFFree: 65536 PFUsed: 0 MC_CACHE 22129, MC_USER 4900, MC_PPOOL 1079, MC_NPPOOL 7069, MmStats.NrFreePages 218757 (KERNEL32:mem/global.c:412) Memory Load: 13 (ex/sysinfo.c:964) SystemFullMemoryInformation (ex/sysinfo.c:972) PID: 1, KernelTime: 4266474 PFFree: 65536 PFUsed: 0 MC_CACHE 22145, MC_USER 4904, MC_PPOOL 1079, MC_NPPOOL 7069, MmStats.NrFreePages 218737 (KERNEL32:mem/global.c:412) Memory Load: 13 (ex/sysinfo.c:964) SystemFullMemoryInformation (ex/sysinfo.c:972) PID: 1, KernelTime: 4266474 PFFree: 65536 PFUsed: 0 MC_CACHE 22145, MC_USER 4904, MC_PPOOL 1079, MC_NPPOOL 7069, MmStats.NrFreePages 218737 (KERNEL32:mem/global.c:412) Memory Load: 13 System lockup, keyboard works???, num & scroll light works on/off.

Ekush

Ekush (http://www.ekush.com) published some binaries. Surprise, surprise, it looks like ReactOS very much (Check e.g. the radio buttons on the "Accept License" screen during 2nd stage setup). Their readme.rtf (epc/doc/Readme.rtf) has these entries: <quote start> Q. Is the OS completely written from scratch? A. Not really in many cases, at least 50% of the components has been shared or taken from some other projects. In fact, we mostly get the ideas and writing them for ours. Eventually we are coding them new folks are based on something else (in wish list) and slowly-slowly they will be removed from our main source tree. Q. You guys says Project published under the GPL but why dont you published sources? A. Initially we decided that, EKUSH should be published under the GPL. But, still there is some confusion within the team. We are now sharing sources between team members only and unless the confusion goes removed we cannot publish sources. Finally, we decided to use a BSD styled license for Ekush and sources or binaries whatever we publish should be free to public and covered by the same license (until a functional edition is released). Information sources and Wish List: Bochs, Wine, QEMU, Freetype, React OS, Nova OS, Minuet OS, Flask, Athe OS, FreeBSD, Systernals, Flik OS, Plan 9, Fravee, V2 OS, Uranium, Fhreed JS, Free Dos, OP OS, Jlink Wrap, NETrove, Fedora, LFS, Tiny OS, Pear PC, BartPE, KDesktop, Line, WinPenguins, 3D Desktop, Dr. Anil Basu, Jason Robin, William Harry, Luiz Quarteiro, Fernando Adantas, Sergio Luiz Silva, John Abraham, Little Robin, Lina Sen, Maria, Adnan, James Bukan, Dr. Piera and Project 21 Team." <quote end> My guess is they are in violation of the GPL by using (some of) our source and not publishing their source.

ReactOS setup CD-ROM crashes on old hardware.
by Mike Swanson 10 Nov '04

10 Nov '04

I took a picture of the screen: http://mike.warpedbelief.com/images/ros-crash.jpg It crashed immediately after I hit a key during the "Press any key to boot CD..." prompt. I can't really figure out if any hardware could cause problems. This is the configuration: Pentium 120 MHz 64 MB of RAM 2 GB hard disk (I think it's Western Digital) 2 MB ET4000 video 36x CD-ROM drive One floppy drive The hard disk partition scheme is this: One primary partition. FAT16. Windows NT 4 Server install on it. Takes up the whole 2 GB.
