http://reboot.pro/14412/ lists a modified FreeLDR (for PXE?) and
CHAIN.C32 (Syslinux multiboot bootloader module).
I'd hope ReactOS can be booted from (FreeLDR on) all of the following
(ofcourse 1 step at a time at implementation) :
* harddisk (implemented)
* floppy (unsure)
* image of above mentioned floppy, loaded by Syslinux/Memdisk.
It is possible to store the bootsector on a floppy. You cannot put
reactos on a floppy.
* ReactOS ISO (WinVblock driver likely needed as well). Tried it,
immediate hang on FreeLDR
I don't understand what you mean. Of course you can boot from the
ReactOS ISO.
* ReactOS bootCD extracted to harddisk ( FreeLDR -->
"C:\ROSSETUP\SETUP.EXE" --> phase 1/2/3)
In other words: does FreeLDR itself access the hardware device to read
more of itself? Or only once done loading itself and 'mounting'
ReactOS from harddisk?
On FAT12/16 disks, freeldr uses code to load more of itself, using bios
calls.
