Using the VMware image of a QNX Neutrino runtime system
Date of this edition: September 06, 2011
The QNX_Eval_RT-nnnnnnnnnnnn.zip archive (where nnnnnnnnnnnn is a build number) contains a VMware image of a QNX Neutrino 6.5.0 runtime system. It's also available as target/QNX_Eval_RT.zip on the installation DVD.

The folder and image file in the zip file on the QNX SDP 6.5.0 DVD erroneously have “641” in their names, but the image really is of 6.5.0. If you already have a 6.4.1 image, be careful not to overwrite it. The names are correct in the zip file on our website. (Ref# 78170) |
Installing the image
To install this image, do the following:
- Download QNX_Eval_RT-nnnnnnnnnnnn.zip from our website.
