Re: [ros-kernel] Freeldr installation on floppy

[gerard.gatineau]

Thanks Eric.

In fact my NT4 machine (laptop) is not used for Reactos - I used it just  to format a floppy disk .
I can compile Reactos on my WIN XP machine ( connected to Internet) or on my WIN98 machine 
connected to my XP machine via a home Lan.
So I cannot make the test on my Win98 machine . This only possibility is my XP machine , Reactos is on 
D partition (FAT32) 
I'll try it tonight.

Regards
Gerard

Yes, it works on NT4 and Win2k.

The floppy driver can read files but writing is not tested yet and may not
work at all.
