- Modify media/vgafonts/28606-8x8.bin Romanian VGA font to display special characters.
- Add global variables for special characters "Char..." for Romanian VGA font.
- Toggle the global variables "Char..." in SetConsoleCodePage function.
CORE-18446
- Add also some validation ASSERTs and simplify the code here and there.
- The installation partition is called "InstallPartition", while the
global "CurrentPartition" is the disk region currently selected in
the partition UI list, on which prtitioning operations are effectued.
- Extend CheckActiveSystemPartition() to use an optional alternative
disk or partition in case the actual system partition (present in the
first disk) cannot be used, e.g. because we don't support writes on it.
- Find or set the active system partition only once, when we start the
formatting stage. If the system partition is to be created in some
non-partitioned space, we create it.
- A file-system check is always scheduled for both the system and the
installation partitions.
- If the system partition was already formatted (which usually means
that it already existed on the system), don't ask for formatting it.
CORE-13205
- For each partition to be formatted, the file-system menu list is
re-created, in order to display only the FSes that are compatible
with the selected partition, and allow to give the user the choice
to keep the existing file-system only if the selected partition was
already formatted.
- Check whether the user attempts to delete the partition on which
the installation source is present, only if it is not "new" and is
formatted.
- Check first whether the current partition is the system partition,
before displaying the CONFIRM_DELETE_SYSTEM_PARTITION_PAGE.
- Add checks for GPT disks and either fail or ignore the disk,
depending on the operation being executed.
[USETUP][REACTOS] Display the disk style more accurately.
- SETUPLIB and USETUP: Convert PARTENTRY::DriveLetter to WCHAR.
- SETUPLIB: Retrieve volume label.
- SETUPLIB and USETUP: Move the partition types (IDs) table from
USETUP to SETUPLIB so that they can share it with the 1st-stage
GUI installer too. Also take the opportunity to update the table
with information from http://www.win.tue.nl/~aeb/partitions/partition_types-1.html
and cross-checked with the list from Paragon Hard-Disk Manager.
- USETUP: Simplify PrintPartitionData().
- Add some code comments.
- Also, reserve a new field to display whether the disk is MBR or GPT-initialized.
- Adjust the code that used the "STRING_HDDINFOUNKx" string labels.
The extra slot added to some of the strings is to indicate whether the disk is MBR or GPT.
As attentive readers will notice, the code that "determines" whether the disk is either MBR or GPT
is of course just temporary: it's just a placeholder code that should currently just show "MBR".
Having the NoMbr flag mostly signifies that the disk is uninitialized. A GPT disk also has a MBR
but it's for "backcompatibility" / "protective" reasons (so that MBR-only tools would see the disk
as just a big 1-partitioned only disk with which they could barely do anything). A real involved test
for the nature of the disk should involve calling the correct IOCTLs in the disk detection code in partlist.c .
This is for the future (and when ReactOS will better support GPT disks).

- Create the beginnings of a "setuplib" library, whose aim is to be shared between the (currently existing) 1st-stage text-mode installer, and the (future) 1st-stage GUI installer.
- Finish to split the GenList and PartList codes into their UI part, which remain in usetup, and their algorithmic part, which go into setuplib.
- Move SetMountedDeviceValue into the PartList module.
- Split the FileSystem list code into its UI and the algorithmic part (which goes into setuplib under the name fsutil.c).
* The algo part is meant to be able to manage the filesystems available on the running system, similarly to what is mostly done (in scattered form) in fmifs, format, chkdsk / autochk codes...
It also manages the partition filesystem recognition, using OS routines.
* The UI part manages the FS list as it appears on screen, showing only the possible FSes that can be used to format the selected partition (a bit similar to what we do in the shell32's drive.c, etc...).
- Adapt the calling code to these changes.
- Remove some "host" code that was dating back from the dark old times.

This will allow to reuse it for the 1st-stage GUI setup too, while using another UI representation.
Add also two partition iterator functions: GetNextPartition and GetPrevPartition.
svn path=/branches/setup_improvements/; revision=74554
- Document more some of the fields in the PARTENTRY, DISKETNRY and PARTLIST structures;
- Remove the redundant members "SystemDisk", "OriginalSystemDisk" and "TempDisk" in PARTLIST as these can be consistently deduced from the corresponding (Original)(System)(Temp)Partition members
(note that we however keep "CurrentDisk" alongside "CurrentPartition", see the comment in the code why we do it so).
- Adjust the rest of the code to take the removal of the redundant members into account. The 2nd parameter of GetNextUnformattedPartition() and GetNextUncheckedPartition() is now really optional.
- Introduce a SetPartitionType() helper to simplify the code that sets the partition type, which also automatically adjusts other internal variables of said partition in accordance.
- "Mounted" logical drives can have assigned letters too, registered in \DosDevices\.
svn path=/branches/setup_improvements/; revision=74532
- Use explicit ansi string safe functions (where they are used ansi, but not explicitely);
- Add (old-school) function parameters annotations;
- Use PARTITION_ENTRY_UNUSED where needed (instead of hardcoding its value);
- Turn some functions static to this module;
- Turn the 2nd parameter of both GetNextUnformattedPartition() and GetNextUncheckedPartition() optional (for next commit);
- Improve some comments;
- Use NT types.
