Hi,
I’ve installed QNX4 on top FAT16 filesystem, and now I want to move it to a seperate dedicated QNX partition. I’m too lazy to d/l the 400MB ISO which enables
installation to a seperate partition. Is it possible to use the existing QNX installation on FAT16 to create a full operational/bootable QNX partition? I have done the similar
thing with DOS/WINDOWS, and think it should be possible for QNX. I think the necessary steps are:
- Create the filesystem (with fdisk? how exactly this is done?)
- Write the boot loader to the new filesystem (fdisk? dinit? again, how?)
- Copy the neccessary files (what files are “neccessary”?)
Also, I read that QNX partition must be in the primary HDD (C drive in DOS/WINDOWS), is it true? If I place the partition on the secondary HDD (IDE-0, slave, or IDE-1,
master/slave) with this setup (below), will it work?
Partition Setup for 4.2GB secondary HDD :
1.5GB FAT16, Primary Partition, set active (DOS bootable)
500MB QNX Partition
2.2GB FAT16, Extended Partition
TIA
