[Bug 9006] Re: system unbootable due to old BIOS
Hi, I've just set up a machine with Ubuntu 7.10 Desktop (master) and Windows XP (slave) and had the "Error 18" on start up. However after reading this thread I solved the problem by letting the BIOS detect (IDE HDD Auto Detection) the hard drives cylinders, heads and sectors instead of using the "Auto" setting. -- system unbootable due to old BIOS https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/9006 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 9006] Re: system unbootable due to old BIOS
I am having the same problem with Feisty Beta. I am going to try updating my BIOS and see if that works. Otherwise, I am at a loss for what to do. I have a 160GB HD split 130/30 (XP/Linux). Ultimately, I plan to use the whole drive for Linux, but for now, I need to retain this configuration. -- system unbootable due to old BIOS https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/9006 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
