I have stumbled across this documentation
http://doc.sch130.nsc.ru/www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/source/fmifs.shtml.
What it contains discusses how partitions are created. The very cool
thing is that by using FMIFS in the installer means that you can
delete,create and resize all the partitions that the disk manager
supports. This means it will make it a lot easier to add support to
both without duplicating efforts.(windows vista+ has resizing xp
doesn't seem to though)
The current text installer doesn't use this as this part of reactos
code is incomplete.
I would like to add this to my gsoc proposal. Though I know I'm
probably not going to get a place it may help me if I get a chance to
do it in the future or maybe this could give ideas to someone else who
tries.
Any thoughts or suggestions would be very much appreciated.
