Hi there
I have installed qnx rtp on a machine on a separate partition. That machine was preinstalled with dos 6.2
Now at boot time when the boot loader comes, inspite of what i press it always boots into qnx…
any suggestions on what should i do to configure it to boot other operating systms (at least the old dos…)

Thanks

You only have a very short time to select another partition with the QNX

loader.
Try holding down the number of the partition you wish select, the instant
that
you see the QNX bootloader message.

And another trick, type in the number of the partition as if you have a
QWERTY keyboard.
For example, here in France, we have to shift to get the number, but in the
boot loader, i must not shift.
