Hi,
Any help with this would be appreciated! 
Brand new PC (Celeron 633, 32MB, 15GB Quantum IDE HDD). Win98 installed.
QNX install (from CD) works fine, but when machine is re-booted and QNX
selected from dual-boot menu I get the following:
/.diskroot file for root not found on any filesystem
Starting with safe mode
[4102] fs-pkg built: Sep 7 2000 16:00:23
Warning [/pkgs/base/safe-config/etc/system/package/packages] doesn’t
seem to exist
Can’t access package config file
Unable to access packages
At this point the machine hangs and needs to be re-booted.
I tried partitioning the HDD in various configurations to no affect.
It’s currently split into a 2GB C: drive and the remainder as D: With
QNX installed on either partition I get the same result (as above).
I have a laptop with similar HDD config and it happily boots QNX off the
D: drive…??
Any clues?
Gavin.
Heh heh - love answering my own questions… the HDD is currently
running as a Primary Slave, as opposed to a Primary Master… d’oh!
Gavin.

I have managed to boot to a qnx installation on primary
slave with nt4 on primary master using nt’s boot menu but
had to hack boot block to inc dx (from 0x80 to 0x81)
immediately before int13 call. Using inc dx in byte 0 and
moving jmp to bytes 1 & 2 does not work.
