If you are using a distribution using this packaging format, then you have two options for installing the RTEMS toolset. - -The first option is to build the toolset from source following the instructions in the @ref{Building the GNU Cross Compiler Toolset}. This is an approach taken by many users. - -Alternatively, it is often possible to extract the contents of the RPM files which contain the portions of the toolset you require. In this case, you will follow the instructions in @ref{Locating the RPMs for your GNU/Linux Distribution} but assume your distribution is the RedHat Enterprise Linux version which is closest to yours from a shared library perspective. As of December 2010, this is usually RedHat Enterprise Linux version 5. As time passes, it is expected that version 6 will be appropriate in more cases. You will extract the contents of these RPM files using either @code{rpm2cpio} and install them or you may be able to use the @code{alien} tool to convert them to Debian packaging. |
