...or DIY method involves these steps:
- make a bootable floppy
for hints, check here (study entire thread)
http://www.openqnx.com/PNphpBB2-viewtopic-t7134-.html
- test to make sure floppy disk boots okay.
- save the floppy disk image to a file, using something like:
dd if=/dev/fd0 of=cd_boot.img
- copy 'cd_boot.img' and other CD files to directory where you are creating the ISO image, e.g. a sub-directory called
'cdimage'
- use mkisofs to create an ISO image
commands will be something like,
./mkisofs -b cd_boot.img -c boot.catalog -l -R -o my_cd.iso cdimage
where 'cdimage' is the working directory containing the CD files.
The mkisofs program is part of cdrecord package:
http://freshmeat.net/projects/mkisofs/
The tricky part will be to compile under QNX, given that the package was originally intended for other operating systems
, and QNX is sort of supported, but not 'officially'.
- burn 'my_cd.iso' onto a CD using your fav burning program.
- test it
- if it doesn't boot, or boots but with errors, check previous steps carefully.
