4.3.1 Installing the Target Linux Software
This section explains how to install Linux for use on the target board. This
is a demonstration version of MontaVista Linux Pro v4.0.
Note that separate versions of Linux are used by the target and your host
Linux workstation. The following Linux host operating systems are
supported for use with the DVEVM.
❏
Red Hat Enterprise Linux v3
❏
Red Hat Enterprise Linux v4
❏
SuSe v10.0 Workstation
To install the Linux software, follow these steps:
1) Log in as root on your host Linux workstation. This will allow you to
successfully run the graphical installer to install MontaVista Linux.
2) Execute each of the following bin files (where
#_##_##_##
is the
current version number) from the temporary location that they were
copied to in order to install the Linux tools, Linux kernel, and the file
system. These installation instructions assume you use the default
installation directory, /opt.
host $ ./mvl_setuplinux_ #_##_##_## .bin
host $ ./mvl_target_setuplinux_ #_##_## _ ## .bin
host $
./mvl_lsp_setuplinux_ #_##_## _ ## .bin
It may take up to several minutes per file to start up InstallShield from
these files.
