Hello

Could you tell me the minimal hardware resource to run QNX 6.1 on embedded
X86 board ?

I have no hardware keyboard interface, no RTC and no arithmetical processor
?

thanks !

Depends how minimal you want to get. Without Photon, 1Meg of flash
and 2Meg of ram should do.

I have no hardware keyboard interface, no RTC and no arithmetical
processor

That’s no problem.

?

thanks !

I am working on an embedded system based around an NS Geode processor. The
only UI is via a touch screen connected to a serial port. There is no
keyboard chip and no RTC chip and the Geode does not have a math processor.

The ‘hard disk’ is compact flash and the primary outside world interface is
via the Ethernet.

It works fine under QNX4 & QNX6.

When QSSL say QNX is scaleable they mean small as well as big:)

Are you developing a custom board, or are you using a readily available

board?

I’m interested in similar hardware.
