QNX® Momentics® 6.2.1 PE - ADI BRH XScale 80200 BSP - Install Notes

QNX^® Momentics^® 6.2.1 PE

ADI BRH XScale 80200 BSP

Installation Note

Date of this edition: September 03, 2003

Target OS: QNX^® Neutrino^® 6.2.1

Host OS: Microsoft Windows XP/2K/NT4 SP6A, Sun Solaris 7/8, QNX Neutrino 6.2.1

For the latest information about this BSP, see the release notes.

Never use the QNX Software Installer through a phditto/phrelay session, because:

the installer can't detect multiple instances of itself through a phditto/phrelay session
when running the reboot script, the installer can try to shut down the system, but it doesn't know how to shut down phditto/phrelay sessions properly (phshutdown, which you normally use to reboot, does know how to handle these sessions).

Installation

If you've previously installed a binary package for this BSP, you must uninstall the old binary package before you can install the new binary package included in this source bundle.

Before you install this BSP, you must have already installed the following on a supported host platform in this order:

QNX Momentics PE 6.2.1
QNX Momentics PE 6.2.1 ARMBE Supplemental -- install in its entirety.

To install this BSP:

Log onto the myQNX account area at the QNX Software Systems website (www.qnx.com). If you don't already have a myQNX account, please register now.
Enter your Product Registration serial number and password from your License Certificate (see the upper right corner under the barcode on your certificate).
Click Software Downloads.
Select Board Support Packages.

Select ADI BRH Board Support Package from the list of updates for the QNX Momentics Professional Edition.

In the next step, you'll download a QPR file. Don't download the QPR file into a directory whose path contains spaces. For example, don't download the file into C:Documents and Settingsmy_useridDesktop.

Download the appropriate QPR file:
brh-src-6.2.1B.qpr (Source bundle)

Solaris hosts

To install this BSP on a Solaris host:

Run cl-installer.
