>After I run Fsys.umass do I need to run the mount command.
It depends and there are two options.

1) QNX License diskette. 
Such floppy disk is "special" and can't be mounted.
Also you can use it later during installation on machine with standard floppy drive.

To create type:
# license /etc/license/* /dev/fd0

To use it type:
# license  
or 
# license /dev/fd0

2) QNX 4 diskette.
It must be initialized first:
# dinit /dev/fd0

then you can mount it:
# mount /dev/fd0 /fd0

and transfer licenses:
# license /etc/licenses/* /fd0

To use it:
# mount /dev/fd0 /fd0
# license /fd0/* /etc/licenses


>If I run  mount /dev/fd0 /fd0  I get an error. 
Probably this is DOS or QNX License diskette.
Before mounting initialize QNX4 File System on it:
# dinit /dev/fd0

Jacek

Re: licensing

How to install old_style licenses on PC without usb, floppy (even a floppy controller).

1.	Creating lic.img file with old_style licenses (small virtual hard disk)
-	contig lic.img 1440000
-	mountimg –t78 lic.img
-	dinit –h /dev/hd0.0t78
-	mount /dev/hd0.0t78 /lic
-	mkdir /lic/licenses
-	license /etc/licenses /lic/licenses
2.	Adding file lic.img to QNX4_INSTALL.iso (by UltraISO utility or other) to main directory.
YOU HAVE INSTALLATION DISK WITH OLD_STYLE LICENSES !
3.	Run installation on new PC
4.	 When will window “Add_Licenses” – run shell by “QNX” button (left bottom corner).
5.	Moving licenses to new partition :
-	cp /cd/lic.img /
-	mountimg –t78 /lic.img
-	mount /dev/hd0.0t78 /lic
-	license /lic/licenses /etc/licenses
-	license -r
6.	Close shell and push buttons “From floppy / F4” -> “Continue” -> “Done”
7.	That’s all ! We can run “Start/F2” !


Good luck
AlexBurk

p.s.
1. utility contig can be used to create a contiguous QNX4 Fsys-hosted disk file ...
    for work with mountimg utility.See attachment.
    For src see :
    http://www.openqnx.com/PNphpBB2+viewtopic-t-6642-highlight-mountimg.html

2. If PC hasn’t floppy controller – don’t push  “From floppy / F4”,
    after command “license –r “ restart installation AS UPGRADE !.

3.You can create batch file for point 5  and add it to installation disk :)
