Getting rid of Altboot

Hello QNX Community,

I was trying to increase the boot time for my system and I was wondering how
I could (or if I am able to) remove the “Hit ESC for Altboot” message so
that it will just boot up straight away?

Also, is there any other tricks to speeding up the boot time?

Thanks in advance,
Phil

You should be able to talk to your FAE and get the source to ipl-diskpc1
and remove that delay.
