Forum Topic - Cannot get bootable QNX 7 USB to boot: (2 Items)
   
Cannot get bootable QNX 7 USB to boot  
I have not been able to get a supposed bootable QNX 7 USB to actually boot on various x86 64 bit machines. I've tried 
the generic image from the BSP download, and others that I've built from the IDE.
On some machines it just boots into the BIOS settings. On one it hangs with a blank screen (not even a cursor). Most are
 Gigabyte motherboards. For example, Z390 UD, GA-H170M-D3H, GA-H270-Gaming 3.
It does not appear to get to the startup script.
I've tried variation in BIOS settings on the machines. The main one being support for legacy USB. With that enabled, I 
can often see the USB in the boot override selection, but it does not boot.
In most cases I have minimal hardware plugged in.
I can successfully boot using a USB loaded with a QNX 6.6 image.
Any ideas?

Update: Using a different USB, I have a situation where I get to a message on screen "Missing operatV2.0system". So 
maybe the problem until now is that the first USB was not recognizable when formatted for QNX. (It was usable with 
Windows). 
Anyway, I'm still stuck.
I believe the machines now try to boot from the USB, but cannot. I've done some reading about IPLs. Documentation is 
obvious for IPL use with partitioned drives. But what about USB drives? The build file only generates the IFS...
