ReactOS reaches major milestone with NTFS install support

The open-source Windows-compatible operating system ReactOS has reached a major milestone: it can now be installed directly onto NTFS-formatted drives. Previously users had to install to FAT-based filesystems, limiting real-world use. Commenters on Hacker News are discussing the technical achievement and what it means for the long-running project's quest to run Windows applications natively.

Why now: NTFS install support removes a long-standing practical barrier for the open-source Windows clone.
