When installing parted magic 2018_03_27 it boots with the following error

error: can't find command 'linux16'. error: can't find command 'initrd16'.

I'm getting this same error when using multibootusb from linux mint 19.3. When I try to use v9.2 or 9.3 it doesn't install correctly with errors. The same iso will work on a usb by itself, but not with multibootusb.

I've got the same error, it's because multibootusb uses linux16/initrd16 commands without checking if the system is in EFI or BIOS mode. These commands are only available in BIOS mode, booting in uefi mode will trigger the errors you have
