INSTALLING XILINX SOFTWARE
  • Put the "Implementation Tools-HP" cd in drive

  • Become root (if not already) and make sure /usr/sbin is on path

  • pfs_mountd &

  • pfsd 4 &

  • pfs_mount -t rrip -x unix /dev/dsk/c1t2d0 /cdrom

    • DON'T LOGOUT OR CLOSE THE TERMINAL WINDOW FROM WHICH PFS STUFF WAS STARTED UNTIL YOU HAVE UNMOUNTED WITH PFS_UMOUNT*

  • /cdrom/install

    • Directory to install to is: /net/edg/disk4/xilinx

    Be sure to only choose "Implementation Tools" at the selection menu. The libraries are installed from another cd, despite them being listed on the menu for this cd.

  • pfs_umount /cdrom

  • Insert "CAE Libraries" cd in drive

  • pfs_mount -t rrip -x unix /dev/dsk/c1t2d0 /cdrom

  • /cdrom/install

    • Directory to install to is: /net/edg/disk4/xilinx (yes, same as above)

  • pfs_umount /cdrom

    • Environment Variables to be Set

    export XILINX=/net/edg/disk4/xilinx
    export XKEYSYMB=$XILINX/bin/hp/XKeysymDB
    export LCA=$XILINX/mentor/data
    export SIMPRIMS=$LCA/simprims

    SHLIB_PATH=$XILINX/bin/hp:$ALSDIR/lib:$SHLIB_PATH; export SHLIB_PATH

    * When you do logout without pfs_umounting the cd, the cd is stuck in the drive. To fix this, first reboot the machine. Next, mount the cd as usual, with mount /dev/dsk/c1t2d0 /cdrom. After you umount the cd, it should eject as usual.
