Hi!
The second stage setup (aka GUI setup) starts doing something useful. It
creates the 'Documents and Settings' directory and its 'Default User' and
'All Users' subdirectories plus some more user-specific directories, like
'Start Menu', 'Favorites', 'Recent' and so on.
You can run the second stage setup either by running 'setup -newsetup' or by
changing hivesys.inf.
In the latter case, change the line
HKLM,"SYSTEM\Setup","SetupType",0x00010001,0x00000000
to
HKLM,"SYSTEM\Setup","SetupType",0x00010001,0x00000001
and install ReactOS (from CD or by 'make install'). When you boot ReactOS,
winlogon.exe will start 'setup -newsetup'. Setup will initialize the
'Documents and Settings' directory and pop-up a message box and terminate as
soon as you click 'OK'. Finally, winlogon.exe will set the 'SetupType' value
back to 0 (zero) and shut ReactOS down.
After another reboot, ReactOS start-up normally.
Regards,
Eric
