How to boot into safe mode?

Post by The Nerdy Plane »

Hi,
I'm currently setting up ReactOS 0.44 to run in my VirtualBox. I've got the basics going, like internet and sound, but I now want to install Direct3d through guest additions in VirtualBox. But unfortunately, I need to be in Safe Mode to do this. I can't figure out how. I know it's very basic, but any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Uhhh.... same way like on Windows? Hammering F8 on boot.
ReactOS is still in alpha stage, meaning it is not feature-complete and is recommended only for evaluation and testing purposes.

Really? FreeLDR is not NTLDR/BOOTMGR.
-uses Ubuntu+GNOME 3 GNU/Linux
-likes Free (as in freedom) and Open Source Detergents
-favors open source of Windows 10 under GPL2

Did you try it?! Seems like you did NOT!
