install on VAIO laptop without floppy but external PCMCIA CD

Hi,

  1. I cannot install QNX 621 on my Sony Vaio laptop (pcg sr1k). after a few
    steps I get the following message

Restarting driver and mounting filesystems…
Unable to mount /dev/cd0 as /cd

PArtition installation aborted



sometime I get the message (after more tries)

Please enter the filesystem you would like to install QNX from

F1 hd017 (or sthg. like that .. screeen is gone)

F2 hd07 (or sthg. like that .. screeen is gone)

but nothing for the CDROM!!!



2. It is not possible to boot from the CDROM… Error message is: cannot
mount any QNX file system

  1. For similar problem, when I tried to install linux, I could not boot from
    CD. I found a solution on the web where I had to change the IO of my CDROM.
    And after that it worked!!!

  2. on the first partition (8GB) I have Windows XP, I would like to install
    QNX on the second one (2GB)

PLS. PLS. PLS. help me.. :slight_smile:
