3.2.1: Installing Zipped Tar Files

The following is a sample session illustrating the installation of a C/C++ toolset targeting the SPARC architecture assuming that GNU tar is installed as tar for a set of archive files compressed with GNU Zip (gzip):

cd /
tar xzf rtems-4.7-binutils-common-2.17-3.tar.gz
tar xzf rtems-4.7-sparc-rtems4.7-binutils-2.17-3.tar.gz
tar xzf rtems-4.7-gcc-common-4.1.1-1.tar.gz
tar xzf rtems-4.7-sparc-rtems4.7-gcc-4.1.1-1.tar.gz
tar xzf rtems-4.7-sparc-rtems4.7-newlib-1.15.0-1.tar.gz
tar xzf rtems-4.7-gdb-common-6.5-2.tar.gz
tar xzf rtems-4.7-sparc-rtems4.7-gdb-6.5-2.tar.gz

The following command set is the equivalent command sequence for the same toolset assuming that is was compressed with GNU BZip (bzip2):

cd /
tar xjf rtems-4.7-binutils-common-2.17-3.tar.bz2
tar xjf rtems-4.7-sparc-rtems4.7-binutils-2.17-3.tar.bz2
tar xjf rtems-4.7-gcc-common-4.1.1-1.tar.bz2
tar xjf rtems-4.7-sparc-rtems4.7-newlib-1.15.0-1.tar.bz2
tar xjf rtems-4.7-sparc-rtems4.7-gcc-4.1.1-1.tar.bz2
tar xjf rtems-4.7-gdb-common-6.5-2.tar.bz2
tar xjf rtems-4.7-sparc-rtems4.7-gdb-6.5-2.tar.bz2

Upon successful completion of the above command sequence, a C/C++ cross development toolset targeting the SPARC is installed in /home/joel/rtems-4.7-work/rtems/rtemsdocs-4.7.1. In order to use this toolset, the directory /home/joel/rtems-4.7-work/rtems/rtemsdocs-4.7.1 must be included in your PATH.
