Jerry, /me will have all ears open (and be ready for testing)
I tried the installfreeldr.exe on a 1 week old fat32 disk and it said "Disk error" when trying to boot.
(Im starting my WHOLE system using a 1.44MB freeldr disk without problem)

Yes, I have. It is a fat12/16 bootsector. I plan to work on the fat32 sometime soon.

On the following http://www.reactos.org/pipermail/ros-dev/2006-February/007717.html a developer says "I am told that the sources for FreeLdr are all okay, except for the some of the bootsectors having been pretty much just disassembled from MS's. Is this true?" The answer comes from an other developer http://www.reactos.org/pipermail/ros-dev/2006-February/007722.html "crashfourit has posted a patch here:"
That means, that it is possible, that MS-bootsector-code have found the way in ROS, if I understood it right.
This code hasn't been audited yet. It's possible that parts of the bootsector have been derrived from an MS dissasembly. The audit will reveal the answer, and it will be rewritten if nessesary.
Regards, Ged.
Brian in his commit message of freeloader said he used disassmebly. However, Jerry has written a new bootsector that will work and can be dropped into ROS at any time.
