Summary:  How to boot QNX and Solaris x86

Original Submission:  This might be introduced in "OS-specific issues".

In order to boot Solaris 8 on Intel, one should have the following lines in its 
menu.lst file

title Solaris
        rootnoverify (hd0,2)
        chainloader +1
        makeactive
        boot

Of course, (hd0,2) should be modified to conform the real situation.

To boot QNX one should have:

title QNX
        rootnoverify (hd1,1)
        chainloader +4
        boot

The OS-specific notes are only for OSes which require
special treatment. So I wouldn't mention Solaris.

QNX seems to be quite funny. Can you tell me where I can get
the information?

Thanks,
Okuji
