QNX4 does not install on Dell PowerEdge R200   
Trying to load QNX using experimental product CD...
CD starts, but crashes when Fsys.atapi loads

Re: QNX4 does not install on Dell PowerEdge R200   
Hi Dave,

Please post show_pci -vvv utility output. If it impossible then output of 
lspci -vnn Linux utility.

Please check error code. It's incredible. Segment must be 5 (or any other 
than 1). Also there is no valid instruction on fe6e offset in the 
Fsys.atapi.

Respectfully,
Oleg

Re: QNX4 does not install on Dell PowerEdge R200   
Hi Dave,

Do you switch SATA controller to the compatible mode in the BIOS setup? 
Can you disable the use of MSI in your Linux (pass nomsi to the kernel 
boot options) and when run lspci -vvnn? This may helps. Thanks.

Oleg,

SATA is running ATA mode.

DId pci=nomsi in grub config for kernel

Here is the lspci output

Re: QNX4 does not install on Dell PowerEdge R200   
Hi Dave,

You can start the Fsys.atapi driver manually.

1. Set "Run installation in diagnostic mode. / F12" check box on the first 
QNX Installer 2009 screen. Then press Next.

2. Unset "EIDE Disk Controller" on the "Select Hardware to Auto-detect" 
screen and press Next.

3. When "Auto-detecting Hardware..." is done use "Add" button to run the 
Fsys.atapi driver. In opened window choose category "Disk Controllers" and 
hardware driver "EIDE Disk Controller". Enter in the Command Line:

Fsys.atapi atapi ioport=0x1f0,irq=14 atapi ioport=0x170,irq=15

And press OK.

If this will not work it's means that your hardware doesn't provide IDE 
compatible mode. So you need to use parameters (iopot and irq) from the 
lspci output. But in your last message I see irq=23. It is possible for 
systems configured to use MSI (Message Signaled Interrupts). Please note 
that QNX doesn't support MSI.

Oleg,

Still crashes...the installation program crashes while trying to 
auto-detect. I turned off all the devices to search
for and it still terminates. I opened up a shell and ran the Fsys.atapi 
and it still crashed at FEDE. I think the problem is
in proc.

Hi Dave,

Oleg has tried what he can to debug  this remotly and not been able to figure out what is happening.   At this point 
we'd ned to get your hardware to debug any further... this would have to be arranged through your sales team if you need
 to  pursue this.

If you don't know who your sale steam are, drop me an email  martin@qnx.com

-Martin.
