># running ># > loadros system32\ntoskrnl.exe system32\hal.dll /DEBUGPORT=SCREEN >bootc.lst I think, you tried to run ROS from DOS, too. But have a look at http://reactos.com:8080/archives/public/ros-general/2004-March/000824.html Let ROS installed in C:\reactos and create additional a boot-floppy-disk, on which FreeLoader is. Then let the floppy in its drive and run it be rebooting the computer.

At first download http://reactos.csh-consult.dk/download.php?sid=FreeLoader-20040310-bochs.i3… The newest version of FreeLoader you can find at http://reactos.csh-consult.dk/index.php?page=snapshots Then unpack it with WinZip (http://www.winzip.com/) or on Linux/Unix with "tar xvfz fileename". Then you have an floppy image called freeldr.img To write this image to a floppy disk use RawWrite (http://uranus.it.swin.edu.au/~jn/linux/rawwrite.htm) for example. Or an linux type in: "dd if=freeldr.img of=/dev/fd0" >is the program for writing freeldr to diskette delivered with ReactOS? No. >can it run from DOS? Yes, please use RawWrite for DOS for this: http://www.tux.org/pub/dos/rawrite/ >can it run from Windows? (autorun.inf entry maybe?) Yes, then use RwawWrite for Windows: http://uranus.it.swin.edu.au/~jn/linux/rawwrite.htm But you can use RawWrite for DOS, too. But that it isn't with GUI. >can it run from ReactOS? (guess not, as long as floppy is disabled). don't know.

Booting problem [0.2.0]: can't find exports & mouse

by Kyryll A Mirnenko

I wrote on ~Feb 24 that has a problem booting ROS (binary dist. v0.2.0). JH asked me for debug log, so after a small delay here it comes (my own comments 're prepended by dash #): # running # > loadros system32\ntoskrnl.exe system32\hal.dll /DEBUGPORT=SCREEN bootc.lst # Now I'm in a blue screen & receiving next messages # ... DriverBase for \SystemRoot\System32\kbdus.dll: ce488000 (ntuser/input.c: 86) Win32K: Failed to open mouse # although I have Microsoft-compartible mouse on COM1 LdrGetExportByOriginal (Original 167) = 76168223 LdrGetExportByOriginal (Original 71) = 76167600 LdrGetExportByOriginal (Original 151) = 76168a2c LdrGetExportByOriginal (Original 328) = 7616948e LdrGetExportByOriginal (Original 386) = 7616a345 LdrGetExportByOriginal (Original 332) = 761696da LdrGetExportByOriginal (Original 334) = 7616979f LdrGetExportByOriginal (Original 339) = 76169cc9 LdrGetExportByOriginal (Original 338) = 76169c6f LdrGetExportByOriginal (Original 154) = 76168af2 LdrGetExportByOriginal (Original 169) = 76167fe6 LdrGetExportByOriginal (Original 73) = 76167b6a LdrGetExportByOriginal (Original 152) = 76167ede (NTDLL: ldr/utils.c: 2041) Failed to create or open dll section of 'wineoss.drv' (Status c0000135) (NTDLL: ldr/utils.c: 1191) LdrGetExportByName(): failed to find GetModuleHandle16 (NTDLL: ldr/utils.c: 1191) LdrGetExportByName(): failed to find LoadLibrary16 (NTDLL: ldr/utils.c: 2041) Failed to create or open dll section of 'msacm.drv' (Status c0000135) (NTDLL: ldr/utils.c: 2041) Failed to create or open dll section of 'midimap.drv' (Status c0000135) # after this point it hangs up Can anybody deal with this? ROS is unpacked into c:\reactos (as should be), loaded from clear DOS (which is itself booted from floppy). If you need more info, ask. One more problem: this log is handwritten from screen, I've no machine near me to write a log to it through COMx, so how do I make ROS loader write log to a file (you see, those errors appear after drives're detected)?

RE: [ros-general] prog: installation failures

by theUser BL

>The following programmes have failed to install: Not all programs can currently run on RectOS. But what me more wunder: ReactOS 0.2.0 runs Solitaire (with its own cards.dll) perfect. But ReactOS 0.2.1 fails to run it. It ends with kernel panic.

Only the values are different. An other point what me wonder is the standard-driver of ReactOS. It seems, that ReactOS itself runs with the standard-driver (and I don't have installed any other one) in 16 or 32 colors. And the resolution is very low. But at starting, the starting-picture with the ReactOS-logo seams to have a lot of more colors then ReactOS, when it runs. And it seems that the logo have a better resolution, then the running ReactOS. Btw: To an other point: I think it would be nice, if you change cmd.exe so, that an "dir" can - with or without an option, thats unimportant - show it like an Win95/Win98 "dir". On my computer ReactOS runs on the Win98-partition. And all file-names existing so, in twi versions: In the long names version (VFat) and in 8+3 (DOS-FAT) version. But after typing in "dir" it shows only the long versions. And after typing in the option "dir /w" it shows only the 8+3 versions. Would be nice, if there existing an option (or as default) where the long version and 8+3 version are _both_ shown. Is possible, that the NFS don't have a 8+3 part. So, then it would be nice, that only on DOS/Win95/Win98 partitions the 8+3 files will be shown. And on NFS filesystems only the long versins like yet.

prog: installation successes

by jh

Pentium 3 450Mhz 64mb ram Reactos 0.2.1 I have successfully installed the following programmes from cd. I did not alter the suggested file path, which was the normal C:\program files tuxpaint: This runs in ros, but as with some other programmes such as abiword, the buttons are not fully developed, also ' save ' does not work. This installation failed in ros 0.2.0. FileZilla 2.1.2: This installed ok but rendered ros useless (but not locked up) after finishing installation. It runs in ros, but I have not used it beyond the profile window. These and other programmes can be found here: http://gnuwin.epfl.ch/apps/en/index.html Regards, jh

(no subject)

by Boyke＠students.uni-marburg.de

Dear ReactOs-Team, first of all i have to tell you that you make a great job. Go on with it. Unfortunately i have no skills in programming, but in computergraphics. Of course the programming is now more important than the design. So i think that you dont pay the design much attention now. But in this point i can help you - if you want. I started to make a new icon set for ReactOs (click on the link). I tried to make it different from Windows, but not too different. Just enough to see a difference, but also to understand immediately what the icons stand for, if you know Windows. They look very serious and have not that "colorful-mainstream-children-windows-xp" design... :-) Notice: The icon for the unknown file types are changed right now by me. As you can see in the forum on the website, there were advices for a better icon. I´ll follow them. http://www.rene.boyke.de/newicons.jpg If you want, take a look. There are just three on the website. If you dont like them, i will stop designing more. If you do like them, i will go on with the work. Of course they are all for free. Here is my eMail, if you are interested: boyke-jura(a)stud-mailer.uni-marburg.de greetings

Abiword - German menus!

by jh

Hi, When I load abiword in ros, it displays most of the menus in german, with the exception of the words ' default EN_US '. Is the ros explorer getting entangled with abiword ? If I run the very same abiword in win95, it displays in english. I have tried the latest version from http://abiword.pchasm.org/builds/periodic/ and a older version that I have already got installed, both behave the same. Regards, jh
