<hbelusca> the menu of this "welcome" application can be configured with an INI file.
rosbridge
<hbelusca> (like the one of windows 2000 btw)
Chungy
yeah, I just missed it. definitely there.

[chungy@turanga output-MinGW-i386]$ sudo mount -r bootcd.iso /mnt [chungy@turanga output-MinGW-i386]$ ls /mnt/ autorun.inf efi freeldr.ini icon.ico loader reactos readme.txt [chungy@turanga output-MinGW-i386]$ cat /mnt/autorun.inf [autorun] open=reactos\welcome.exe icon=icon.ico [chungy@turanga output-MinGW-i386]$ l /mnt/reactos/welcome.exe -r-xr-xr-x 1 root root 247K 2020-04-02 11:39 /mnt/reactos/welcome.exe

rosbridge
<hbelusca> (yes that's the actual win2000 welcome app but with a custom INI)
Chungy
neat
Chungy
hmm. I think part of how I missed it, doesn't seem like ROS actually does anything with autorun
rosbridge
<hbelusca> no we don't implement any autorun functionality.
rosbridge
<hbelusca> Well **actually**....
rosbridge
<hbelusca> We sort of implement it, that's why you still are able to see the ReactOS icon when you mount a ROS ISO on ReactOS
rosbridge
<hbelusca> (or any other icon if you mount a different ISO)
rosbridge
<hbelusca> But we don't run the autorun programs.
Chungy
not on the right click menu either
Chungy
Chungy
I remember when I used Windows 95 and disabled autorun, it would still have a right click menu item to run it
rosbridge
<hbelusca> iirc windows 7 does that too.
rosbridge
<hbelusca> What happens if you click on "Open" in ReactOS ?
Chungy
just opens the directory
Chungy
my main Windows experience comes from 95 :D
Chungy
so close :P
Anonymous
so close :P
if it wasn't for build text, I'd confuse this for win95
Chungy
lol
Chungy
the menu bar works different too. W95 highlights the whole item with the selection color

old school simcity
Chungy
lol
Chungy
aw, trying SC2k for myself
Chungy
Stas'M
Chungy
maybe the gog version will install
Stas'M
isn't it installable without installer?
Stas'M
like by copying files into proper location
Stas'M
(or extracting them with 7-Zip if necessary)
Chungy
I can try. and it seems like GOG only distributes the DOS version with DOSBox as a wrapper. that's lame
Chungy
I'll go back to the original CD
Chungy
just copying it seemed to not work :(
Chungy
from the WIN95 directory
Chungy
maybe I can install it in Wine and copy those files over
Stas'M
don't forget about registry stuff
Chungy
crashes near instantly
Chungy
hey a new version of OpenTTD, maybe I should try that
Chungy
I think someone messed up a check :D
Chungy
they should probably recognize NT 5.2 as meeting the requirement
Chungy
it works :D
Chungy
kind of an old school game but still maintained
Chungy
incredibly low fps if I make it full screen and 2560x1600. probably expected
Chungy
https://github.com/OpenTTD/OpenTTD/issues/8057 *mentions reactos*
Stas'M
It could be ReactOS bug
Chungy
Compatibility mode makes the warning go away
Julen
I can use the mouse function in my Huion Tablet in ReactOS (I don't know who made this, but thanks you really much).
Stas'M
yay! https://twitter.com/x86corez/status/1246183826587615240

Hooray!😎I’m coming to ROS by having ditched systemd💪🏻
Chungy
that's a lot of partitions
✝️ ☺️🌞 HD Scania
sda18 = C:\ sda45 = A:\ or B:\
✝️ ☺️🌞 HD Scania
Which options are suggested for fresh one like myself?
Alexander
Start normally?
✝️ ☺️🌞 HD Scania
And which system to be started finally?
✝️ ☺️🌞 HD Scania
Does the blue line look good?
Chungy
Why don't you just try the defaults first?
Mark
please note reactos is in alpha
Mark
so do not put it on a pc with valuable file on it, that you do not have backups of :)
✝️ ☺️🌞 HD Scania
So i won't even touch any BSD/Linux partitions at all with installing ROS
Mark
let's hope ros does not touch them then ^^
✝️ ☺️🌞 HD Scania
Are GPT schemes, NTFS on root, UEFI managers fully supported for ROS up to now?
Mark
yay, this question
Mark
it's been 3 days since I saw that last

What a tidy man!
Yet ... I’ve had a messy friend which he has run up to 28 distro w/o clear purposes
✝️ ☺️🌞 HD Scania
Boot in screen mode, thanks
Stuck here, just wait since here, or quit then reboot with other options?
rosbridge
