I am trying to create a boot image and put on Compact Flash for a Digital
Logic MSM586SEV board.
Has anyone done this before and if they have can they help. I am looking for
the correct build file format and correct sequence for dinit.
Thanks,
Ian

Not for the card you mention, but is there anything special about that
board? Did you try “generic” build file?
Pavol Kycina
Thanks,
but where do I find the ‘generic’ build file info?

There used to be some info in Help files, but I can’t find it where. But you
can see those help files online, see
http://qdn.qnx.com/support/docs/embedding_sdk_en/building/about.html , and
especially
http://qdn.qnx.com/support/docs/embedding_sdk_en/building/config.html .
Hope this helps.

Not sure about QRTP but QNX4 works fine on this board booting from both
DiskOnChip and CompactFlash. AFAIU for DOC you need to get M-Systems’s
drivers, for CFlash it appears as ordinary IDE drive. Was tested with DOC
16Mb and CompactFlash 8 and 32Mb.
// wbr
Thanks for that info.
Do you have any details of the fdisk, dinit and mkifs commands to partition
and make the CF. I think that this is where I am going wrong. I can build an
image no problem on a floppy but cannot make the same image boot from Flash.
The bios hangs!
I can DOS format the flash and get that to boot ok.
Any help or guidance appreciated.

I havn’t tryed DOC/CompactFlash with QNX 6.x so i can give full info related
only to existing QNX 4.25D installations. Anyway, maybe it will be hepfull
for you.
