Maybe. You can try to install WinVblock driver, which will find the memory mapped hard disk
(iso won't work for the moment). I don't know if the driver will run in ReactOS (works in Windows).

Shao Miller developed it, so he can tell you more about it.

You can get syslinux-3.83-pre4 for the syslinux.com file from:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/Testing/

You can find the last MEMDISK version (newer than the one in pre4) on the boot-land forums
or on http://ubcd.stopspazzing.com/downloads/memdisk-iso/memdisk.zip
