This misfunctionality has 2 pieces: Reactos unable to start kernel

extended partitions
1 MS NT+ supports installing onto the extended partition for ages,
including, yes, Windows 7
So this is requirement if only speaking from formal point of view
2 This feature is extreamely useful for any Windows user-- especially
for ones with busy all primary partitions: 2 backup partitions, one C:
and one just anything other, Linux or OsX - and you very need extended
partition to keep Reactos
3 This feature is extreamely needed for just any real-life (==real
hardware) Reactos tester and developer: see p.2 Plus starting from
extended partition will allow to have multiple copies of reactos
installations, which is bread and water for testers.
OK. So since this is a rather self contained part, I would like to fix
this, and make it work so that the installer can handle it. Apparently
nobody is working on it and I already started looking into it anyway.
Don't know if anybody will look into the kernel part, but I can try it
after fixing the installation issue first.
