linuxvme

These are drivers that are used on a specific vme setup in linux. They are here in case we need to recreate the system that is running. We are unable to hook up a usb or ide drive or cdrom to the vme computers, so we have to install the operating system elsewhere and then physically move the disk to the vme system.

Making a new version of the system.

Install SL45 on a new disk.
You can find scientific linux at http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/obsolete/45/.

Choose "Custom Install". In the list of packages that comes up, you can uncheck "Text-based Internet, Office/Productivity, Sound & Video". You should add "Development Tools" and in the Gnome Desktop Environment, also add the program "eog".

This is the partitioning scheme that I used.

Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/hdc1   *           1          65      522081   83  Linux      (/boot)
/dev/hdc2              66         587     4192965   82  Linux swap
/dev/hdc3             588        9729    73433115   83  Linux	   (/)

Once the system is installed, check if it's running a multiprocessor kernel. Change /etc/grub.conf to use the single processor kernel. Reboot so that we start using that kernel.
There are a few other packages to install. I didn't feel like searching for them during the installation process, so I did them by hand later.

ImageMagick libpng-devel libjpeg-devel freetype-devel libtiff-devel zlib-devel nedit

For some reason, all the links needed were not created in /usr/lib. I had to add some of these by hand.

# cd /usr/lib
# ln -s libjpeg.so.62.0.0 libjpeg.so
# ln -s libpng.so.3 libpng.so
# ln -s libtiff.so.3.6 libtiff.so
# ln -s libfreetype.so.6.3.7 libfreetype.so
# ln -s libz.so.1.2.1.2 libz.so
# ln -s libgd.so.2.0.0 libgd.so

Download the files in this repo. The directories named linuxvme, linuxvme_examples and linuxvme_util should be placed in /usr/local. The directory kvaser should be in the / directory. The directory kelby should be a user's directory in /home.

Test things. The system has to be running in a vme system for anything to work. One test program is ~kelby/BIN/hstst, which should open a window.
