I'd like to boot a notebook from a my QNX 6.3 computer, so I looked infoqnx.com and found stuffs like netboot and bootpd.....The problem is that Ihave no idea where I can get those tools as I found nowhere in my QNX 6.3installation for clues of bootpd and netboot.
Anyone can tell me how I can achieve network booting in my situation? Thankyou very much Regards,Bruce

Hello-I am working on a old screen for QNX 4.25 that made use of termlib. Ihave scoured the QNX web page for information about the term libraryfunctions but haven't been able to find any documentation. The onlyreference I've found to termlib is something that says to find a WatcomC reference manual printed prior to 1996. Unfortunately I don't havethat document. Does anyone know where I can find documentation on theterm library? Thanks in advance,James

Hello, I am programming a time critical application using a PCI IO card with aBus-mastering DMA controller. DMA memory is allocated for use by the DMAcontroller using the mmap() function. The controller simply couldn't do fastenough memory transfers because the PCI card kept giving FIFO overflowinterrupts. So I decided to clock the amount of time taken to do memorytransfers. The test program is given below. I compared time taken totransfer memory out of a mmapped region and the same for a me.... read more
