What is the QNX equiv of “lilo -s bootimage.bin”.

I’m trying to save the boot sector so I can use the WinXP OS choice menu.

ie: c:\boot\qnx.bin in my XP boot.ini

Thanks for your help

There is no lilo or equivalent in QNX.

I’m trying to save the boot sector so I can use the WinXP OS choice menu.

dd if=/dev/hd0t79 of=/fs/hd0-dos/boot/qnx.bin count=1 bs=512

I assume you have FAT FS on disk C: and it’s mounted as /fs/hd0-dos.

ie: c:\boot\qnx.bin in my XP boot.ini

Thanks for your help

Best regards.

Thanks, that worked beautifully.

Now I have a quad-boot 20gig removable hd (with caddy).
