- Added F8 options menu
- Added custom Boot functionality
- Moved all OS= settings from [FreeLoader] section to [Operating Systems] section.
- Removed MessageLine= setting. MessageBox= now accepts "\n" as an escape character for newlines.

- Added assembler versions of memcmp() memcpy() memset()
- Implemented Int386() so that real-mode interrupts can be called from C-code
- Removed unnecessary call in DbgPrint() macro (freeldr.sys is ~16k smaller now)
- 64-bit lba sector addressing for disk calls
- Re-coded biosdisk.S as i386disk.c
- Re-coded mem.S as i386mem.c
- Re-coded rtlcode.S as i386rtl.c
- Cleaned up i386trap.S so that it only saves the registers once.
- Re-coded biosvid.S as i386vid.c
- Video fade in/out
- VESA text modes supported now
- Offscreen buffering to remove flicker
- Standardized format of boot sector so that BootPartition is stored right before 0xaa55
- Prefixed all file system functions with 'Fs'

Removed/disabled debugging code.
SetupLdr must not call BiosInt13ExtensionsSupported() to check extended int13 capabilities because they are already used to boot a CD and some BIOSes return incorrect results when a CD-ROM drive is checked.

- EXT2/EXT3 file system support.
- Does not yet support symbolic links or booting from an EXT2/3 partition.
- Fixed bug in UI code.
- Added '%%' format specifier to printf()-like functions.
- Added functions __udivdi3 & __umoddi3 so that 64-bit division is now supported.
- Changed types BYTE, WORD, DWORD, LONG, ULONG to U8, U16, U32, S32, U32
so that you know the size of the variable across different
architectures with different sized words & dwords, etc.
- Types CHAR, UCHAR, PCHAR, PUCHAR, WCHAR, PWCHAR have not been
changed yet (I haven't decided exactly how I'm going to handle unicode)
(isn't this an awesome commit? ;-) Just look at that list of files)

- Added protected mode exception handling in case FreeLoader crashes
- Reworked memory manager to use all of extended memory
- Reworked UI code, now supports multiple text-mode resolutions
svn path=/trunk/; revision=3010
Supports booting Linux bzImage kernels
No initrd support (yet)
No zImage support (yet)
No ext2 file system support (yet)
Forward slashes '/' as well as backslashes '\' can be used for path names in FAT & ISO-9660
Fixed bug in LBA code where is was only reading one sector even if you asked for more
Fixed bug in FAT code, was also present in ISO-9660 code

Extended partitions are supported (untested)
If you call OpenDrive() with Partition == 0 you get the active (or bootable) partition
Partitions 1 - 4 are the primary partitions
Partitions 5 - n are the extended partitions
Also added disk parameter detection code (always assumes 512 byte sector size, I don't like that but I don't see any other way)
svn path=/trunk/; revision=2651
New .ini file format (sort of) - changed some parameter names, etc.
More efficient .ini file parsing code
More efficient use of memory, smaller image file
Total rewrite of file system code (the old stuff sucked)
VFAT Long File Names now supported!
ReactOS is the only boot type supported currently, disabled all others (temporarily)
