QNX6 Power Safe Filesystem on a compact flash returns "Read Only Filesystem" when mounted   ________________________________________________________________________ Applicable Environment ________________________________________________________________________ Topic: QNX6 Power Safe Filesystem on a compact flash returns "Read Only Filesystem" when mounted SDP: 6.4.1 Target: Any supported target ________________________________________________________________________ Solution ________________________________________________________________________ The devb-umass driver does not support sync so you must specify the sync=ignore option to the mount command, or to the driver directly when starting it. E.g. # mount -tqnx6 -o sync=ignore /dev/hd10t177 /fs/flash NOTE: In newer SDP versions, "sync=ignore" is not documented (but may still work). The supported/documented option is "sync=none". ________________________________________________________________________ NOTE: This entry has been validated against the SDP version listed above. Use caution when considering this advice for any other SDP version. For supported releases, please reach out to QNX Technical Support if you have any questions/concerns. ________________________________________________________________________ Related Attachments  None Found
