Setting up a dual-boot system

Can someone please instruct me on how to setup a dual-boot system using
Win2k and QNX4.25.
I found some info on the qnx.com but it’s pretty vague.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks!

You will need a boot loader to select the OS to start. There are some good
ones out there, eg :
System Commander (from V Communications), Boot Magic (from PowerQuest). Or
you can
toggle the active partitions using ‘fdisk’.

The easiest solution would be to buy a copy of System Commander. It
explains how to do things.
I have been using this for about 3 or 4 years now.

First you need to free up space on your hard drive to install QNX4.25 on.
I’ve used
Partition Magic from PowerQuest to do this and it works fine. Then boot the
QNX4
floppy and follow the instructions. Be sure to place the free disk space at
the beginning
of the hard drive so that the QNX boot loader can reach it.

QNX4 has a usable boot loader/ selector as part of its package so you do not
need to
install any other boot loader.
