Handbook - SuSE 6.3 EMC Installation(The use of Yast found on CD.2 as opposed to Yast2 on CD.1 for installation is assumed.) 1. Set up the hard disk and partitions,
following the manual's instructions. 2. Select the SuSE Default installation from the Load Configuration option 3. Check for the following programs in the Change/Create Configuration option:
4. When all the files have been loaded, reboot the
system and run Sax. * For the rest of these notes, we will be using the KDE desktop enviroment - which should install as part of the SuSE default configuration. 5. Login as the root
user, and type 'startx kde'
to fire up the desktop GUI. 6. Once in KDE, open the file manager (KFM) 7. Locate rtlinux-2.0.tgz and right click on it - open it with Archiver and extract it to the directory /usr/src/ - Archiver can now be closed. 8. Follow the directory tree to /usr/src/rtlinux-2.0/ in KFM 9. Open another KFM window, and navigate to /usr/src/ 10. Drag the /linux-2.2.13 folder from /usr/src/ to /usr/src/rtlinux-2.0/ and click on Copy.
11. You should now have two links in /usr/src/ called linux and linux-2.2.13, both pointing to /usr/src/rtlinux-2.0/linux. If so, close both KFM windows. 12. Open Konsole and follow the instuctions found in /usr/src/rtlinux-2.0/INSTALL.phil - from section 2. 13. On rebooting the machine, compiling the RT
modules, and testing the new kernel
you should be ready to install EMC.
14. Start the KDE graphical user interface, and open the file manager again (KFM)
15. In a Konsole window, move to the /usr/local/
directory and run ./install
16. In KFM, move to /usr/lib/ and make the following two links:
17. Create a new folder in /usr/local/rcslib/etc/ called 'phony' and in 'phony' create 'include' Copy the following files to /usr/local/rcslib/phony/include/
Move to a Konsole window, and move to /usr/local/ and type ./compile There will be a few warnings generated by the compiler, but these can be ignored for the time being.... End Majority of SuSE 6.3 install material supplied by Paul Corner. Edited 3.21.01 by Keith Rumley |
