Hi,
I’ve a problem with installation of QNX Pro 6.3.0,
I’m installing it under VMware 4.x,
I’ve seen on another forum that after installation I’ve to boot in safe mode
and then without photon (F1 and F3),

problem is that first F1 (boot in safe mode) is OK,
but then (which safe mode), no Fx key is recognized, they appear on the
screen as I hit them but with no action, the only key that runs is ENTER but
it bring me back at previous choice.

Can someone help with it ?
Thanks in advance for your help

Funny, didn’t have to do that.

Me neither, and I don’t recall seeing that advice.
Maybe for a previous version of QNX.
It seems to work quite well with 6.3.0 and QNX
detects & uses the VMware all by itself.
