mkdir ~/z3-netra
cd ~/z3-netra
Place release tar file in new directory and untar archive.
cp /your_tar_file_location/z3-DM8168-version.tar.bz2
tar -xjf z3-DM8168-version.tar.bz2
Un-tar'ring the release should have created an intermediate directory with the release name (such as "z3-
DM8168-1.0.0-20110209"), please cd into it. In order to build the code, the current directory must contain the
project subdirectories "build-tools", "dvsdk", "kernels", "u-boot", etc.
Then run the following commands to build the system executables.
./build-tools/setup.sh
source z3-env
make z3_netra_defconfig
make clean
make all install
make demos
Now all the executables are built and ready to run. All binaries and executables are in the images/ directory.
The target board must be able to access the files placed in the "images" directory of the project. Since the
default u-boot variables point to /home/z3/z3-netra, it is just easier to make symbolic link from there to the
project you are currently working on. If un-tar'ring the release created an intermediate directory with the
release name (such as "z3-DM8168-1.0.0-20110209 as shown above"), then create symbolic links as shown
below so that the target default settings can find the images:
cd /home/z3/z3-netra
ln -s z3-DM8168-1.0.0-20110209/images images
ln -s z3-DM8168-1.0.0-20110209/filesys filesys
Make sure that the u-boot environment variables set on the target board match the locations of the executables
on your work directory and run the target board. By default, using the factory settings, the target expects that
the kernel image is available at z3/z3-netra/images/ (assuming that the root path set at the TFTP server is
/home) and that a root file system is available for mounting with NFS at /home/z3/z3-netra/filesys/fs/.
It is important that you have the shell environment variables of the Linux PC you are working on set correctly
as set by the included batch file "z3-env". Every time you start a new shell you should set the environment by
running "source z3-env". Among other things, this will set the environment variables $PRJROOT and
