Hi Hartmut,

Microsoft have managed to write their Cm code in a very portable way so 
that the Hv* (Hive) and Cm* (NT Config Manager) APIs are very seperated. 
The result of this is that they've been able to share the registry code 
between the kernel and the boot loader. Is there any way we can do the 
same? Certaintly having two pieces of code that are very similar but 
have subtle differences creates only more avenues for bugs. (Casper, you 
agree?)

Best regards,
Alex Ionescu
