If you didn't do anything manually, 10.1 installed grub to the 10.1 partition, and set the "active" flag to that partition. You should be able to boot XP by running the partitioner and setting the XP partition to active instead. Error 18 means "trying to read beyond the capacity of the BIOS". Did you change something in the hard drive settings in the BIOS recently? LBA mode, or such? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
