Hi,

I tryed to use build file from Making Buildfiles for the QNX Neutrino RTOS, Part 2 document:

[virtual=x86,bios +compress] .bootstrap={
startup-bios -s 64k
PATH=/proc/boot LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/proc/boot:/usr/lib procnto
}
[+script] .script={
seedres
display_msg "My QNX Explorer Image..."
display_msg "Hello World"
# two virtual consoles
# at Ctrl+Alt+1 and Ctrl+alt+2
devc-con -n2 &
reopen /dev/con2
[+session] ksh &
reopen /dev/con1
[+session] ksh &
}
libc.so
# here?s another way of creating a symbolic link
[type=link] /usr/lib/ldqnx.so.2=/proc/boot/libc.so
[code=uip data=copy perms=+r,+x]
seedres
kill
cat
ls
ksh
devc-con
less
ps
sin
pidin
#Here goes our favorite editor...
vi


I thougth that it was the simplest and sufficient but only a message:
Hit Esc for .altboot       
occured.

I used commands sequence:
mkifs -v buildfile my.ifs
dinit -f my.ifs floppy.img.


The output was:

All existing files on floppy.img will be lost!  Are you sure (y or n) ? y
