    Re: i intall ubuntu but now i can access to pclinuxos

    I am not sure which bootloader pclinuxOS uses.If it
    is grub then it might be the problem that ubuntu lucid uses grub2,which
    differs in counting partitions.(hd0,0) in grub is (hd0,1) in grub2.

    If it is grub in pclinuxOS,then there should be a file:
    /boot/grub/menu.lst in pclinuxOS.Starting Ubuntu and open this file
    from ubuntu and edit all (hdx,x) in (hdx,x+1) might do it.

    After this editing run
    Code:
    sudo update-grub
    in Ubuntu.

    Any suggestions and comments are welcome,grub is not my favorite theme !



    Edit:
    Another idea is to boot pclinuxos from it's LiveCD,open a root terminal there and run
    Code:
    redo-mbr
