As far as I can tell (having got Win98 going again only to find the
download of QNX was corrupt), you can install it from Windows on the
Windows partition, and it just gives you a choice when you boot Windows of
QNX/Windows (Someone's going to hit me if I say Windows any more, right?
;)

Doesn't effect Linux, as far as I can tell.

If you install it under Windows, there's an uninstall option there
somewhere. (I spotted that much. Disturbing that just about the only
uncorrupted thing there was the uninstall program ;) If you install it on
a separate partition, erm, ignore the partition? Format it and put
something else on it?

Beat him to it :)

Now, how long before I get my free QNX CD? As I really can't be bothered
downloading it again from their terribly slow server. Not if it's going to
screw up and corrupt the file again.
