QNX 6.5.0 SP1: pci-bios-v2 is not starting whenever a PCI card is plugged in  
I'm expieriencing some troubles while getting a PC hardware to run under QNX 6.5.0 SP1 (latest available patches 
applied):

Whenever I insert a PCI card, the pci-server is not started ("Unable to access "/dev/pci" (2)") and I cannot find the 
reason for this.
It does not matter, what kind of PCI card I insert (I tried several different cards: network, graphics, gpio) - the 
result is always the same.

The hardware is an Intel Haswell Core i7-4650U with 8GB of RAM and PCI express Slots, where I use an adapter for PCI 
cards. (As far as I know, the controllers are PEX8112 (PCI-to-PCIe bridge) and PI7C9X20404 (PCIe switch))

The PC is booted with 'startup-apic' and 'pci-bios-v2' (see the attached .zip file for the boot script)
(MSI (pci-bios -M) are switched off, since message signalled interrupts are not supported by our software, but starting 
with MSI enabled also fails)

In the attached .zip file, there are some log files with the output of the boot process (startup-apic and sloginfo) 
logged via serial console. (the file names should be self-explaining)

In the 'boot_with__no_pci-card' logfile, You can also find the output of the 'pci' command, if this is of interest.

Is there something missing in the boot script or is there some unsupported hardware?
Any hints by someone would be very helpful.

Thank You in advance - with best regards,
Michael.
