When I tried installing reactos, it didn't seem to boot. It shows a BSOD, but get's stuck at blue.sys. My system is PII 30 megs of ram if that helps.

That's not possible atm, cause ReactOS can't use swapfiles/-partitions yet. However, I doubt it's the RAM's fault.dragonslay wrote:Sorry for the double post, but if the 30 mb of ram is the problem, would making a temporary swap partition for installation solve it?
Is the system you're installing to a notebook?

I am not installing to a notebook, although I may be getting a 40 mb pentium 90 laptop I will install reactos to.gasmann wrote:That's not possible atm, cause ReactOS can't use swapfiles/-partitions yet.

I may have figured out the problem. I have an scsi harddrive, and I hear there are problems with them, and I hear you can trick reactos/NT into using the scsi harddrive.
I have Linux, just incase I need to install reactos with it.

I believe the RAM may be your problem. I have personally found out that ros (at least the latest SVN) needs at least 80MB of RAM to install properly. The problem is with the installer (it tries to load huge files into memory to speed up the installation process).
