unknown symbols on start

I just finished trying to install the QNX Momentics v6.3 Product
Evaluation - x86 Host. I used all the default install values. It goes
through some of the initial startup. I’m leaving out some of the initial
stages but this is what I get:


Detected EIDE - Scanning for devices
unknown symbol: readdir64
unknown symbol: fopen64
could not resolve all symbols

then the computer locks

I can provide hardware specs if there is a need

Thankyou,
Dave

Did you have an existing 6.2.1 partition? Did you boot the
6.2.1 partition, but select the 6.3.0 partition?

I saw the above when I installed a second partition, at boot time
selected the 6.2.1B partition for my boot image, then when it gave
me two partition to mount at /, selected the 6.3.0 partition. That
gave me the 6.2.1B libc.so, which didn’t contain the 64 bit file
I/O symbols that the 6.3.0 programs needed.

Thanks for the response, I came at the problem fresh the next day and it
happened to work just fine the next time I installed it. I had deleted a
6.2.1 partition prior to trying to install 6.3 but what I did notice was
that the boot loader still let me boot the deleted partition that
contained 6.2.1. Therefor it is probably the case that you explained.

Thanks again,
Dave

Hi all

I am a new user of QnX. I have a problem with the installation. Is it
possible to run the setup with the program files residing on the hard drive
instead of burning a CD with the image file?
