PCLlinux 2010 Error 18
« on: April 21, 2010, 08:07:07 AM »
Help on error 18, cannot boot either Windows or PCLinux after installation. I have dual boot system, Windows and PClinux 2009 before PCLinux 2010 installation.

Thanks.

Hi nardz,

Did you do fresh install on "new" partitions or did you install "over the top" of your 2009x system?

Thank you for the help.  I tried the GRUB installed on the other drive, I have two drives in my system and it works.  Problem solved. :)
