gdogg Posted October 18, 2005 Author Share Posted October 18, 2005 (edited) thanks dirt. I am lost for words right now. So im just gonna go and work on this project, as I have some pain killers in me, and can spend some 10 hours on it today or so.good stuff, i can get files out of vmware, so expect beta 2 today or tommarrowbeta two is almost ready. A wednesday release is for sure.in vmware (without drivers) it is currently using 24.3MBand uses 48.7MB hard drive space \windowsfor those of you using vmware, i came up with vmware fixes so you just need to double click, in the second windows in vmware, and microwinX will boot in vmware again Edited October 18, 2005 by gdogg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gdogg Posted October 19, 2005 Author Share Posted October 19, 2005 (edited) I have updated the front page, anyone who will be beta testing should take a look.I dont know who gave me the bad rating that moved me down to 4 stars, but >:-| , not cool at all.but anyway, beta 2 has been sent to testersif you would like to test also, or if I forgot about you. PM me now, I cant handle 50 PM's (that wont fill)so pm away, anyone who wants to test, you must read the front page, but as you can see, you agree just by becoming a tester, even if you dont read it.if you need help getting something to run, PM me, or visit my IRC channel, which will be alot faster.I have included an application patch file in the second post, for those who want to quickly get there firefox and thurderbird running.

rockerbl2 Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 Hey gdogg, just got the beta, what is this about installing a second windows (so it can run the .regs)?? Do I have to install a second windows and how could I go about doing this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdogg Posted October 19, 2005 Author Share Posted October 19, 2005 (edited) if you have partition magic *hint* ,you can resize your parition, and add a second one.you need a second partition with windows to fully shrink the windows on the c drive Edited October 19, 2005 by gdogg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockerbl2 Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 (edited) but do i install windows twice with the same installiation disc? Can I boot inbetween the two windows? Edited October 19, 2005 by rockerbl2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdogg Posted October 19, 2005 Author Share Posted October 19, 2005 (edited) but do i install windows twice with the same installiation disc? Can I boot inbetween the two windows?yes you can use any windows you like on the second partiton, but microwinX will require the C:\I recommened you use a version of windows on the second partition that works with all your software. or what you currently are using and not the nlited windows session.ini i have included.STEP 5 MUST BE RUN FROM the C:\ windows, DO NOT RUN IT FROM THE SECOND PARTITION.

rockerbl2 Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 (edited) Can I skip around steps (such as step 3+4, if at some point I want to install things) and can i customize the last session.ini to include dhcp client, usb audio support... etc?

rockerbl2 Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 What does step 5 do? And why did u keep the themes service+luna theme, that eats ram and dosen't look to good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdogg Posted October 19, 2005 Author Share Posted October 19, 2005 (edited) lol, because it might be small , but atleast its not ugly, and it doesn't eat much ram, at all, and check one of those folders, for the "other" themeI still might make a second version, smaller, themeless, without shell services, so basically, it will be looking like win98 editps. I still cant re-install windows on my computer, so I cant do so much testing anymore, other than vmware. Edited October 19, 2005 by gdogg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockerbl2 Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 (edited) What does step 5 do?EDIT: can you be more specfic Edited October 19, 2005 by rockerbl2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdogg Posted October 19, 2005 Author Share Posted October 19, 2005 (edited) it deletes useless directories that are not needed for this project. right click the file and then edit, for more specificsI want people to now take the time to list software there use, so I can test and patch it to work in this windows.I am currently using deerpark, which is firefox 1.5 beta 2, optimised, like the link on the front page, it is very fast, loads in 1 second, or less Edited October 19, 2005 by gdogg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
