Install on SanDisk

I am trying to get QNX 6 installed on a computer that is using a SanDisk
Flash drive the looks like an EIDE.

I am booting from a Install CD and it will not build the partition needed to
do the install.

Is 32MB enough to do a install from a CD?

I can delete the DOS partition, but how do I get it to create a QNX, boot
and loader setup?

It is not enough space !

I will be getting 128MB version in today.

Is that enough?

But the real question is how do I get the Boot CD to create a partition?

32MB is not enough for an install from the CD. I doubt 128MB is either. That
is enough for an “embedded” QNX/RTP system, I have gotten the OS,
Drivers,Photon, and Voyger Browser down below 6MB so its just a matter of
taking and selecting only what you need. Let me know if you need any help.
