Hi
As I recall, there is USB support under QNX4.25, correct?
Is there USB floppy support? This is needed only
for s/w updates, not for booting, and the USB stiffy
could be more convenient than the conventional one.

Limitted, and only as beta, if I recall.

I don’t think there was USB floppy support – I think it mostly
supported mice and the ability to extend it yourself.

One of those permanent beta situations? It’s been some time.
I know, contact my sales contact…

OK-that’s what I thought.

Thanks

For what I recall it was really limited to mice and keyboard support.
