Title Removing the QNX4 boot loader
Ref. No. QNX.000005845
Category(ies) Installation, Filesystem
Issue How would we remove the QNX boot loader?



Solution To remove the boot loader, install another OS into another partition which will overwrite the QNX loader or directly remove the QNX loader by using the fdisk command.

fdisk -B <filename> to install the boot loader called <filename>

Note:  If you have Windows/DOS or a Windows/DOS boot diskette, the command 'fdisk /mbr' will also overwrite the boot loader.
