Sir Richard 8c8041b1d6 [FREELDR]: Use WinLDR-style booting exclusively for ARM. Remove thousands of lines of old code where we basically did the same thing.
[FREELDR]: Build WinLDR for ARM too, and implement the required portability functions to get it working. Don't build "ros-style" loading on ARM.
[FREELDR]: Redo from scratch the entire paging setup for ARM. Instead of using 20MB of physical RAM, we now only use 1MB that's passed on to the kernel.
[FREELDR]: Fix loads of bugs in the ARM loader code (ha-ha!).
[FREELDR]: Cleanup compiler and linker flags in the rbuild files.
[ARMLLB]: Remove all deprecated video machine routines that are not used anymore.
If all went well, the ARM port should now boot on Versatile platforms up until the ARM3 initialization code.

========================
ReactOS Version 0.3.x
Updated Dec 16, 2006
========================

1. What is ReactOS?

   ReactOS is an Open Source effort to develop a quality operating system
that is compatible with Windows NT applications and drivers.

   The ReactOS project, although currently focused on Windows XP/2003
drivers compatibility, is always keeping an eye toward compatibility with
older version of Windows NT family ( NT 4.0, 2000 (NT 5.0)) and new
Windows NT releases (Vista, etc). Applications (Win32 API) compatibility
focus is Windows XP.
