Diskpart Maintainer

Post by Gaprosys »

Hello,

first, you're all doing a great job and I think this project is really great.

For over a year, I've been happy to read the news, closed Jira tickets and the latest changes in the wiki.

All the people around ReactOS are doing a great job, and the progress ReactOS has made after setting the development to a 3-month release cycle is breathtaking.

I hope to see more of the people around ReactOS see what's going on and how the project will evolve in the future.

Ever since I got to know this project, I wanted to get involved and develop diskpart as far as I could. Is the diskpart currently being actively developed by someone, or is there a maintainer for diskpart?

Yours sincerely,

- Gaprosys

AFAIK there is no maintainer nor it is actively developed. Just fork the repo, start coding and send a pull request.

Happy coding!

Here is the explanation how it should go (since the aim of ReactOS is to re-implement NT architecture in an open-source manner):

Note that bootcfg and bcdedit are absent in ReactOS.
-uses Ubuntu+GNOME 3 GNU/Linux
-likes Free (as in freedom) and Open Source Detergents
-favors open source of Windows 10 under GPL2

Thanks for your replys.

I have a look into the documentation from Microsoft.

I read now through the documentation and got to learn a little bit over vds.

I'm now trying to run the files, from vds and the corresponding files in reactos. I took the files from windows server 2003 and copied it into the virtual machine with reactos installed.

vds.exe seams to run just fine, but if I try to run the diskpart.exe from Windows Server 2003, diskpart says "The disk management services could not complete the operation."

For now, I want to look into this, to check, if APIs are missing, that VDS need to run correctly or why VDS doesn't seam to run fine.
How could I go and do this?

Time to break out the debugging tools. The simplest place to start would be to attach a serial monitor to your VM and run ReactOS in Debug mode when you do this testing.

I'd start here: https://reactos.org/wiki/Debugging#Virtual_machines

Beyond that you may need to use tools like Windbg, but there are others here who can help you with how to use tools like that more than I could.

Thanks you for your quick reply, karlexceed.

With a little thought, I could have come up with the debugging tools myself.

Anyway, thank you very much for getting me in that direction.

Have a nice day.

With the help of karlexceed I used the debug-mode from ReactOS and found the solutions, that registry-keys are missing.

If I start now VDS as a service putty gives me the following output:

Code: Select all

(win32ss/user/ntuser/nonclient.c:1063) err: Wnd is active and not set active!
(dll/ntdll/rtl/version.c:62) We modified the reported OS from NtProductServer to NtProductWinNt

I know that the second and third line are coming, because I declared my VM as Workstation, instead as Server.

If I now run diskpart.exe from the Windows 2003-Server the following lines are coming:

Code: Select all

Does I missing some extra Registry-Keys or what is the problem, with the UserRegisterClass?

I use now the 0.4.11 codebase to research the vds, so this lines-numbers are from the 0.4.11 code.

If someone still needs the registry keys that I found so far, they can write that and I would be happy to post the found keys.

Yours sincerely,
