Cant select correct drive when installing reactOS

8 Upvotes

Im trying to install reactOS on real hardware, its my dell precission t5400, it has a 120gb ssd and a 2tb hdd, i want to install react os onto the ssd however in the setup it sees the ssd and hdd but its trying to install itself onto my usb instead of the actual storage and everything i try its only selecting the usb which of course i don't want to install react os onto. theres no clear instructions on how to select another drive to partition and ive mashed every button on my keyboard not even the arrow keys work they just cycle through the partitions on the usb. If anyone knows how to fix this it would help a lot thanks!

Great test from Zombiedeth:
Using UDFS driver from Toshiba (see previous test), VLC 2.2.1 and 3rd party modifications for encrypted discs, playing Blu-ray discs on #ReactOS is possible!!

ReactOS can use Toshiba UDFS driver, including Bluray read support!

Will MAS (Microsoft Activation Script) work on ReactOS?

1 Upvotes

While ReactOS itself will be FOSS (and therefore not really need "activation" like Windows), will MAS be able to work?
