You can find ready-to-use builds of recent SVN revisions at: https://www.reactos.org/getbuilds

If you don't see builds for the latest, use the arrows to go back until you find one that has files.

You can NOT install ReactOS on a USB hard drive, though.

If you do want to build from source regardless, you should look at RosBE, although I'm not sure if it works well in FreeBSD, since I build from Windows.

How can I build and install ReactOS on a new computer?

Can I install to a USB stick or to a 1.2 GB IDE hard drive in a USB 2.0 hard-drive enclosure?

Main hard drive is Western Digital Green 3 TB, GPT-partitioned.

I would have to build from FreeBSD or less likely NetBSD or Linux.

I downloaded the installation ISO for ReactOS 0.3.15, but it failed to boot, also failed to boot on an old computer.

I already have subversion (svn),  built from FreeBSD ports.
