Hi,
since some time, I'm not able to install ReactOS on real hardware. Freeldr fails at the first boot after the second stage setup. The error message is 'Couldn't open CodePage registry key'. I've add some debug messages to freeldr. Freeldr isn't able to open the key '\Registry\Machine\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet'. If I rename umpnpmgr.exe between usetup and the second stage setup, ReactOS boots without any problems. If I rename umpnpmgr.exe back, ReactOS fails on the second boot with umpnpmgr.exe.
