[ros-dev] Registry binary hives -- "problem"

[Aleksey Bragin]

	Hello,
it looks like it is a common problem that people don't like to read  
commit messages :-)

So I post here - starting from the introduction of cmlib patch into  
our tree, the binary hives became compatible with Windows XP binary  
hives, BUT incompatible to ReactOS binary hives made with the  
previous versions of ReactOS (this includes the current 0.3 release).

In order to overcome this problem, simply reinstall your reactos with  
formatting the harddrive partition during setup. Or manually delete  
the contents of \system32\config directory, issue a "make  
install_registry" command, and don't forget to upgrade your  
freeldr.sys too (in case you install all that manually without bootcd).


WBR,
Aleksey Bragin.
