10. SOFTWARE DRIVER INSTALLATION
The following sections explain how to install the driver software in VxWorks,
Linux and Windows based systems.
10.1 VXWORKS DRIVER INSTALLATION AND USAGE
This section is covered in a separate manual. Please see the vxWorks OEM
Developers Guide p/n 131901 for vxWorks software installation and integration
instructions.
10.2 LINUX DRIVER INSTALLATION AND USAGE
These instructions assume that you are running Red Hat Linux 7.x, 8.x, 9.x or a
similar Linux OS. You should be using at least a kernel version 2.4.18 installation
for any other Red Hat-based system will be similar. For other Linux based
systems, the location of some files may be slightly different.
Building the driver
To build the driver, copy the driver files to an appropriate directory. You will need
to make sure your CD is mounted.
$ mkdir dpm
$ cd dpm
$ cp /mnt/cdrom/linux-dpm-driver/dpm/dpm*.tar.gz .
$ gunzip dpm*.tar.gz
$ tar vxf dpm*.tar
