QNX 4.25 Starting QNX issues   
I have an older QNX 4.25 system and when trying to boot or load the .altboot, I get a 

Starting QNX.....
No Adaptors Found!!

and it proceeds to tell me via mount that the /dev/hd0.0 file not found

my QNX4CD install CD tells me it detects the drive, and when I do upgrade I actually see hd0.0 and hd0.t.077(i think)

This is an SATA drive with BIOS option to use ATA not AHCI or RAID, I am at a loss I inherited the problem with no 
floppy.

Hi,

it seems to be a SATA vs QNX. 
I've seen installer working with the disk (ATA mode) but the boot image does not.

Try the USB key... the modern BIOS should also have simulation options.

Good luck,

What do you mean in regards to the USB key? Does QNX really only like pure PATA connections?

You do realize that you are referring to a 25 year old version of the OS...
