Booting from the Boot floppy disk
If you selected “Floppy” as the Boot Media in step 3 (on page 77):
1. Place the Boot floppy in the RT node’s floppy drive.
2. Press Ctrl-Alt-Delete. The system reboots, then loads INtime software’s remote
RT kernel from Boot floppy.
3. Insert the Commands floppy when prompted to do so. The system loads the system
applications from the Commands floppy. After the applications load, the RT Node
can communicate with the Windows host.
Copy build files to the hard/flash disk
If you selected “Harddisk” or “Flashdisk”as the Boot Media in step 3 (on page 77):
1. Place the INtime RT node setup disk in the target RT node’s floppy drive and boot.
The DOS prompt displays.
2. Partition the hard/flash disk:
Note
• Remote nodes are compatible only with FAT-16 partitions.
• Ensure that partitions sizes are 2047 MB or less. Some free fdisk programs create
partitions of incorrect sized.
A. Invoke the ‘fdisk’ command. A character-based GUI displays.
B. Ensure that partition 1 is available for use.
C. Select the option that creates DOS partition 1.
D. Specify the amount of memory allocated to the primary DOS partition.
Note
The RT kernel can only detect DOS partition 1.
E. Ensure the primary DOS partition is set to Active.
F. Press the Esc key to exit fdisk and reboot the system. Leave the RT node setup
disk in the drive.
3. Add the following:
• To the source code: #include “ntx.h”
• To the linker’s directory list: %INTIME%\nt\lib
