First off I have read a lot of posts and thought I knew what i was doing but it doesn’t seem to have worked
I have 2 harddrives the primary one has both linux and win2k on it with grub as my boot manager
the second has various data partitions on it, I deleted an empty one of these partitions and installed qnx in to it, and chose not to install the qnx boot loader
the problem
when the machine boots to the grub menu and i click on the qnx entry the screen flickers for a second and the grub menu reappears
heres the linux fdisk thing for that harddrive
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hdb1 1 2550 20480008+ c W95 FAT32 (LBA)
Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary.
/dev/hdb2 2550 10199 61440120 f W95 Ext'd (LBA)
Partition 2 does not end on cylinder boundary.

Partition 3 does not end on cylinder boundary.

/dev/hdb7 7649 10199 20480008+ 7 HPFS/NTFS
heres the various bits and pieces I have tried on my grub configuration thing
title QNX at hdb4
rootnoverify (hd1,3)
chainloader +1
title QNX at hdb4
rootnoverify (hd1,3)
chainloader +4
title QNX 6.2.1
root (hd1,3)
rootnoverify
makeactive
chainloader +1
title QNX 6.2.1
rootnoverify (hd1,3)
makeactive
chainloader +1
map (hd0) (hd1)
map (hd1) (hd0)
is it likely that these are causing problems (from the fdisk)
“Partition bla does not end on cylinder boundary”
as they don’t seem to effect the one qnx is on
Any help would be greatly appreciated, as i am stumped
