These files have the ".tgz" -extension. They were compressed with gzip version 1.2.4. - -Use a command sequence similar to the following to uncompress each -file: - - gzcat FILE.tgz | tar xvof - - -where FILE.tgz is the file to be installed. This procedure will -extract the files in the archive into the current directory. -All of the .tgz files associated with this release RTEMS will -place their contents in a subdirectory rtems- in the current -directory. - -If you are unsure of what is in an RTEMS archive file, then use -the following command sequence to get a listing of the contents: - - gzcat FILE.tgz | tar tvf - - -NOTES: - -(1) The "-o" option to tar is included on the tar command line - so that the user extracting the tar archive will own the extracted - files. - -(2) gzcat is sometimes installed as zcat. Be warned that on many - (most) UNIX machines, zcat is associated with compress (.Z files). - -(3) If you do not have gzip 1.2.4, it is available from numerous sites - including this one. Other sites include ftp.gnu.org and ftp.cdrom.com. - -(4) The GNU archive files included in this distribution are packaged - exactly like they are on official GNU ftp sites. When extracting - GNU archives, they will not extract under a rtems- - directory. They will extract themselves under a directory which - is the name and version of the tool in question. For example, - gcc-2.5.8.tgz will extract its contents into the subdirectory - gcc-2.5.8. +See the documentation referred to in the README. -- cgit v1.2.3
