Using INTEL PRO/1000 Gigabit driver in QNX 6.6 running on VMware ESXi

Using INTEL PRO/1000 Gigabit driver in QNX 6.6 running on VMware ESXi

When installing QNX 6.6 using VM-QNXSDP660-201402230339.iso on VMware ESXi (8.0 update 2) the default network apapter used is AMD Lance PCNet 32. The PCNet 32 driver reports to only support 10Mbps, for cases where higher network bandwidth is needed Intel PRO/1000 Gigabit is a good choice. To load Intel PRO/1000 Gigabit, edit /etc/rc.d/startup_aps.sh and comment out pcnet.so driver and add dirver for e1000, like:
#io-pkt-v4-hc -d /lib/dll/devn-pcnet.so &
io-pkt-v4-hc -d /lib/dll/devnp-e1000.so &
