I was surprise when the installation to hd did not work when choosing "erase entire disk". I had to manually add partitions and size. What is wrong?.
I have 2 hdd. One with win7 and added another. To install, I just unplug the one with win7(default). To boot into PCLOS, I use F12.
I like what I see. Even my sound work. Great distro.

Witamy na forum Janusz. Ladna ksywka...

Not sure about the option to use the entire drive. Maybe HDD needs to be empty before using this option (brand new - no partitions?). I never used this option as I am always choosing to partition the drive manually but maybe someone smarter can throw some light on the matter.

Thanks for the kind words.

Czesc. I do not mind manual partition, but for someone, that never use Linux that would be a nightmare. Not mention that I am lazy by nature.

Forgot to mention, I did manage to mess-up my "virtual screen" "Network. Found some work around - just drop firefox to panel.
