Surely this message is appropriate to the ros-general list, or if not, then the ros-dev list.

Being technical in nature, maybe the ros-dev list?

But surely not spam!

If I knew the answer, I'd speak up, but am strapped for where to install ReactOS.

I don't think installing to USB stick is supported, and hard drive is GPT-partitioned.

IDE hard drive in a USB 2.0 SATA/IDE hard-drive enclosure?

And then the ReactOS 0.3.15 installation CD failed to boot.
