USB PIC Bootloader. User Manual


8.4.2. Bootloader Software Installation

To run encoder and fw_update applications first you should unpack and compile them. Download the latest bootloader release (bootloader-x.y.z.tar.gz file) from http://www.diolan.com/pic/bootloader_dwn.html. To unpack and compile encoder and fw_update applications you can use the following commands.

% tar -zxvf bootloader-x.y.z.tar.gz
% cd bootloader-x.y.z/fw_update
% ./configure
% make 
% make install
%cd bootloader-x.y.z/encoder
% ./configure
% make 
% make install

[Caution]Caution

The last command requires user "root" access permissions.

By default the encoder and fw_update applications are installed into /usr/local/bin. Use configure --prefix option to override the default.

To read generic installation instructions you can read INSTALL file in bootloader-x.y.z/fw_update(encoder) directory.
