2.2 Software under Windows

Software running under Windows environment:
• ARM Realview development suit (preferably version 1.2) or RVDK for Philips

2.3 Software under Linux

A Linux system with root access is necessary for the development.
On this Linux system, below tools must be available:
• Generic tools like 'make'.
• arm-linux-xxx cross compile tool chain (which is available in the /tools/ directory)
[Note]
If user would like to use new version compilers downloaded from internet, please pay
attention that the kernel and the libraries in the root file-system must be built with the
same compiler. That means you must re-compile not only the Linux kernel but also all
libraries and executable files in the root file system.
And you should grab below source packages for building new images and further
development.
• U-boot
• Linux kernel
