Problem when booting when QNX is install on partition

Hi

Having loaded QNX on a DOS partition and being very impressed I decided to
install it to a real partition, having on spare.

Made Dos boot disk from the ISO disk I had made and run though the install
and verbose and every thing worked fine.

I do have system commander, as I already have a Linux partition on another
disk, I use it’s boot manager. It recognized the new bootable partition, but
when I come to boot I get:

Press Esc for alternate OS… 0C

or

Press Esc for alternate OS… 04


and then it hangs and the reset button come into play.

Any ideas?

Hi Phil,

There is a knowledge base entry that discusses a problem booting
QNX using the Linux bootloader. The address is

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Barry
