Hi,
I’m using a QNX-system that is stripped down to it’s minimum. During the boot process I call
mount -T io-net -o host=myname. /lib/dll/npm-qnet.so
on an relatively early stage to mount this system in QNet.
That works well on a full system but fails here (error message “Can’t mount / (type io-net)”)
What could be the reason for this? The required files are available on the system…
Hans,
Can you post your build file for the stripped down boot/system.
If I type in “mount -T io-net /lib/dll/npm-qnet.so” as a non-root user I get that same error message:
Can’t mount / (type io-net)
But then on the next line I get a ‘permission denied’ because I tried as a non-root user.
It seems that what you see is the standard error message if something goes wrong. Hence the reason I want to see your build file / boot process.

I had the exact same problem earlier…
Before you use the mount command to mount the network device, you must first start io-net. Your script should look something like this:
io-net
mount -T io-net…(driver info for en0)
io-net only has to be started once… then you can use as many mount commands as you want.
NOTE: if you plan to start any protocols such as tcp/ip, you should make sure to specify them with the io-net command… (io-net -ptcpip)
Hope this helps
