Title Recovering from deleted sysinit files
Ref. No. QNX.000001249
Category(ies) Installation
Issue Both sysinit files on the computer were deleted.
How can we boot the computer so that these files can be replaced?


Solution Boot from the boot disk, then run the correct Fsys controller from the harddrive.  After the Fsys controller has been run, mount the hard drive, mount the partition, and edit the sysinit file.

See "QNX OS Installation & Configuration" manual(Chapter 11) on Disk & File Recovery.
