Setup guide
The disc mounts on the /mnt/cdrom directory. The DKU installation directory is located at the top
level directory of the disc.
■ Otherwise, download the latest DKU tar file from the download link provided in the release
announcement, then go to the directory where the tar file was downloaded, and unpack it by typing:
tar -zxvf DKU_<version_number>.tar.gz
The DKU tar file is unpacked into a new directory.
4 Go to the DKU installation directory and launch the DKU installation script:
./INSTALL_DKU
WARNING If you attempt to install the DKU on an unsupported platform, the installation script only installs
a generic configuration. Such a configuration can render your operating system unusable. Never attempt to
install the current version of the DKU on unsupported platforms, including older Visual Effects and Finishing
or Colour Grading systems that are no longer supported in the current version.
When the DKU installation script completes, a warning to update the AJA card or DVI-Ramp firmware
may appear and you are returned to the command prompt. See the following section for information
on updating your AJA card firmware.
5 If you installed from a disc, return to the root directory, and eject the disc by typing:
eject
6 Before rebooting the system, do the following:
■ Ensure the Wacom tablet is connected.
■ If storage devices (external disk arrays or internal storage) were previously disconnected or turned
off as part of an operating system installation, reconnect them and power them up.
NOTE Power on the XE expansion enclosures first and the XR RAID controller units last. This ensures the
RAID controllers detect the other units in the Stone Direct storage.
Wait for all the disks in the storage devices to power up before rebooting the system. The green light
for each disk stops flashing once it is fully powered up
7 Reboot the system. Type:
reboot
NOTE After the workstation reboots and until you install the application, the Wacom tablet might not behave
correctly. Installing the application, then logging out of the KDE desktop and logging back in should eliminate
this problem.
