By default, ReactOS can only be installed on a machine that has a FAT16 or FAT32
partition as the active (bootable) partition. The partition on which ReactOS is
to be installed (which may or may not be the bootable partition) must also be
formatted as FAT16 or FAT32. ReactOS Setup can format the partitions if
needed.
Starting 0.4.10, ReactOS can be installed using the BtrFS file system. But
consider this as an experimental feature and thus regressions not triggered on
FAT setup may be observed.
ReactOS can be installed from the source distribution or from the bootable CD
distribution. The two ways to install ReactOS are explained below.

To install ReactOS from the bootable CD distribution, extract the archive contents. Then burn the CD image, boot from it, and follow the instructions.
