Linux OS Tests

Tested on Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy. Updated article and made note about texinfo Devineman

The URL=http://dreimer.bplaced.net/rosbe/RosBE64-1.4b.exe is not working.

Simple usage should be added

Especially for the Ubuntu PPA. The newcomers are hard to find they should run `/usr/RosBE/RosBE.sh /path/to/ros/repo` to enter the build environment.

Missing step should be added to ubuntu step list.

Please add 'sudo apt update' for after they add the repo, but don't try to install. If 'sudo apt update' is not done, the software is not installable.

RosBE Warning

We need to add a warning to not install RosBE in a directory path that has a space in it. GCC does not like that in the slightest and will throw errors while compiling ReactOS. --ROSVonThaden (talk) 06:45, 28 July 2023 (UTC)

Is it possible to self-host the building environment on ReactOS?
