I have an x86 machine for which I would like to decrease the boot time. The
BIOS time has been trimmed and now I need some pointers for the QNX6 side.
Is there any way to disable/lower the time spent waiting for drive/partition
to be entered? What about altboot? Beyond these I would have to investigate
disabling the enumators and launching drivers for the known hardware (is
this correct?).
Thanks,

Suggestions:
on 6.1:
*) rebuild the /.boot fs image for bare minimum services
*) trim down the /etc/system/enum/, but you can get rid of
enumrators entirely by invoking everything in ifs
on Momentics SE,PE:
Ditto.
on Momentics NC:
*) you can’t rebuild /.boot, so disk detection can’t be tuned.
*) you can still trim down the enumurators, or
*) disable enumrator and setup device drivers
manually in sysinit, rc.local whatever
-) though your concern seems to be the diskboot’s drive detection which
couldn’t be tuned in NC…
