ReactOS reaches major milestone with NTFS install support
Open source Windows alternative ReactOS has reached a major milestone: The operating system can now be installed directly onto an NT Files System drive partition.
AI Summary
ReactOS can now be installed directly onto an NTFS partition, eliminating the previous requirement to use a FAT32 partition for installations. This change removes a long‑standing barrier and moves the open‑source Windows alternative closer to its goal of binary compatibility with Windows Server 2003. The milestone was reported by Phoronix and marks a step toward a beta release. NTFS, the Microsoft‑developed filesystem introduced with Windows XP, is the standard on most Windows systems today.
