It's written for the most common testing platform of ReactOS, the
maintaining effort spent over years was minimal, and it just does its
job very quickly, even with VMWare 7 (provided you copy necessary video
driver files from its CD to modules\optional when building your bootcd).

Is this documented somewhere including a howto, for 'most common testing platform'?
I was under the impression VMWINST was only able to handle old ISO structure of Vmware tools, not new tools ISO (despite me having explained structure before, and 7zip doing the job), nor your above listed method. If it actually works, good news (for vmwinst.exe in phase 3). Having to rebuild CD instead of pointing to files on a CD or directory, is an annoying requirement however.

WBR,

thanks for above info. Gives some hope after having messed around with FreeLDR all day in vain.
