FREELDR.INI
Is there any documentation as to how Freeloader's config file has to look like? For some reason Reactos setup says that it was unable to install the boot loader. It is a FAT32 partition with no OS, but ntldr and boot.ini are present. Windows xp resides on the second primary partition in NTFS format. I'd like to manually set up freeldr and launch it from GRUB. --j.rohr 22:48, 11 March 2007 (CET)
- I found a sample FREELDR.INI in ReactOS-0.3.1-REL-src.zip at ReactOS Sourceforge download directory. rursus 21:00, 30 May 2007 (CEST)
