QNXRTP hangs on bootup at "installing /dev/par port 378".

Hello,

I Have encountered this problem on 2 of the 4 machines I’ve tried to run
QNXrtp.exe on - this may help if it happens to you, although I can’t explain
why …

  1. Begin booting QNX normally (I have DMA enabled).
  2. At the first opportunity, press the [SPACE BAR] as devices are being
    detected.
  3. Select options ‘6BCD’ and then press the [ENTER] key.

From this point forward, you should be able to get beyond the
“installing /dev/par port 378” message and boot normally.

I’m not sure, but I think you really only need to use OPTION B.

Fixed both of my errant machines this way.
