As an update to my earlier post, I discovered that examining the first
few lines of Linux’s “dmesg” outout will give the same information
(memory layout).
I have discovered that my own block of memory that QNX cannot see lies
at 1000000 to 4000000 (in hex). From reading the previously mentioned
thread (“less than physical ram”), it appears I now have to :
Under QNX6, this would be the -M option to startup-bios (and would
require
building a new OS image).
However, this is where I am stuck. I have searched for the
“startup-bios” command, but it does not seem to exist on my laptop
system (6.2.1). Is this present in some extra package ? If so, I have
some problems, as I do not have enough memory to launch the installer
(or much else - QNX only sees about 1M free)
Instead, I have 6.2.1 installed on another PC that works fine - could I
build the new image as mentioned on that ? If so, how would I go about
this ?
Many thanks for any advice you may be able to give!

I believe that this is only included on the SE & PE systems.
It is not included on the NC systems.

If you had it it would be in /boot/sys.
Ahh, OK. In which case, I am straight out of luck in getting the NC
version to run on my laptop
