HELP!!!! qnx 6.2.1a installation

Hi people,

Anybody has experience dealing with QNX neutrino? I cant install it
into my comp. Currently i have 3 partition…1st is C: with OS(win XP)
installed, D: with some files and lastly E: empty… i was planning to
install QNX onto E … but how come when i tried to install, the QNX
installer oni reads 2 partition … 1 is my OS drive and 2nd is D and
E combined as one…
Please kindly advise …

THANKS ALOT!!

One of the many weirdo quirks of the PC.

You need space for what’s called a primary partition. Both your “D” and “E” partitions are what’s called a logical partition, like there’s a difference, inside a primary. This encompassing primary, aka: extended partition, is what the QNX installer is showing you.

The fix is to delete the “E” partition and shrink the extended partition to only contain the “D” partition. Then QNX will find the unused space and be happy. :slight_smile:
