"crash at bootimage_init line 279"

We have an embedded system based around the AMD Elan SC520 processor. The
QNX 6 system boots directly out of Flash, copying the IFS image header to
RAM, as per the “ipl-SC400” stsartup code. However, during a boot, the
system frequently writes the message “crash at bootimage_init line 279”, and
then hangs. Unfounately I have no idea what or where this line is. I guess
its part of the startup code in procnto, but i can’t verify this as I don’t
have access to the source. Has anybody encountered this error before, or
have any idea what might be causing it?
Thanks,

Hi,

I had the same problem on 486EX CPU board with QNX2.0. QNX support told to
me that it was
a problem with RAM access.
I had the memory test in my CPU BIOS setup, to boot more slowly
