I'm using the boot-cd "qnxsdp-6.4.1-x86-200905201802-nto.iso".
chkqnx6fs returns nothing. That is it does something but then the prompt appears
and nothing is displayed at the screen.
Does it means it is really qnx6? In that case, do I need a special driver for
qnx6 fs?

David.

with the QNX6 file system.

Hi David,

Sorry to bother you with my problem. How can I mount a qnx6 file system (I'm
using the boot CD)?

Many thanks,

David.
