Hi Tim,

You're getting the warning because the diskboot (and other components) that
ship with the development environment are licensed, where it's not on the
runtime kit. While the warning won't prevent you from booting, to get rid of
it, you'll need to rebuild the image using the Runtime Kit.

In /x86/boot/build, there should be the qnxbasesmp.build file, and assuming
you've installed the multicore package (formerly the high end bundle), you
should be able to rebuild the image. If you haven't installed the multicore
package, you can do so by inserting the CD after boot up and executing
'qinst' according to the ancient rituals:

cd /
qinst d /fs/cd0/repository/qnx6-target-smp.tarx | tar -zx -f- 

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
-Brian

I still haven't solved the qinst problem, but after speaking with a QNX engineer the diskboot problem has been resolved.


The diskboot used on the runtime kit does not require licensing while the version installed with the IDE does.  By 
copying the version from the runtime installation over the IDE version and rebuilding the image all is well.

FYI...
