QNX2 floppy in QNX4 OS

I want read floppy in QNX2 filesystem in QNX4 OS. I have this files:
Qnx2fsys.tgz, Qnx2fsys.tgz.readme , Qnx2fsysNew.tgz, Qnx2fsysNew.tgz.readme
but i don’t know what to do with them.

use the Qnx2fsys.tgz file. copy it to a tmp area on your qnx4 machine and
decompress the .tgz with:

zcat Qnx2fsys.tgz | pax -rv

then run the ‘use’ program (like ‘man’) on the binary.
e.g. use Qnx2fsys

the source to the program is in the New archive set…

…the first trouble is that gentlemens that built Qnx2fsys
forgot to run “#usemsg Qnx2fsys Qnx2fsys.c”… :wink:

I don’t still understand why I mount the floppy. When I type ‘use Qnx2fsys’
I get ‘no usage available’.

I don’t still understand why I mount the floppy. When I type ‘use
Qnx2fsys’
I get ‘no usage available’.

this is due to trouble i noticed below :slight_smile:

as a sollution: source code Qnx2fsys.c includes at the beginning
that usage message you would see if it were linked to the executable.
look at this. not so elegant but sometimes it wotks…
