Unhappy HELP!!!! Cant load PCLINUXOS


Hi anyone,

Need help loading linux.

I have created an ISO image of PCLINUXOS P.92 live cd and started computer. This found the cd and booted into PCLINUXOS.

Now that I was happy it worked I put a new hard drive in (blank) and started the computer. It wont boot into PCLINUXOS.

Where am I going wrong. I want to start PCLINUXOS live cd in order to hard drive install.

Any help received with thanks!

Lee

Check your cabling and jumpering on the new hard drive and the cd drive. It's most likely a hardware problem. If you installed the hard drive on the same cable/ide channel as the cdrom, it almost surely is a jumpering or cabling problem.
