| 14 | UNCOMPRESSING .tgz FILES |
---|
| 15 | =========================== |
---|
| 16 | Many of the files found in this directory and its subdirectories |
---|
| 17 | are gzip'ed, tar archive files. These files have the ".tgz" |
---|
| 18 | extension. They were compressed with gzip version 1.2.4. |
---|
| 19 | |
---|
| 20 | Use a command sequence similar to the following to uncompress each |
---|
| 21 | file: |
---|
| 22 | |
---|
| 23 | gzcat FILE.tgz | tar xvof - |
---|
| 24 | |
---|
| 25 | where FILE.tgz is the file to be installed. This procedure will |
---|
| 26 | extract the files in the archive into the current directory. |
---|
| 27 | All of the .tgz files associated with this release RTEMS will |
---|
| 28 | place their contents in a subdirectory rtems-<release> in the current |
---|
| 29 | directory. |
---|
| 30 | |
---|
| 31 | If you are unsure of what is in an RTEMS archive file, then use |
---|
| 32 | the following command sequence to get a listing of the contents: |
---|
| 33 | |
---|
| 34 | gzcat FILE.tgz | tar tvf - |
---|
| 35 | |
---|
| 36 | NOTES: |
---|
| 37 | |
---|
| 38 | (1) The "-o" option to tar is included on the tar command line |
---|
| 39 | so that the user extracting the tar archive will own the extracted |
---|
| 40 | files. |
---|
| 41 | |
---|
| 42 | (2) gzcat is sometimes installed as zcat. Be warned that on many |
---|
| 43 | (most) UNIX machines, zcat is associated with compress (.Z files). |
---|
| 44 | |
---|
| 45 | (3) If you do not have gzip 1.2.4, it is available from numerous sites |
---|
| 46 | including this one. Other sites include prep.ai.mit.edu and |
---|
| 47 | gatekeeper.dec.com. |
---|
| 48 | |
---|
| 49 | (4) The GNU archive files included in this distribution are packaged |
---|
| 50 | exactly like they are on official GNU ftp sites. When extracting |
---|
| 51 | GNU archives, they will not extract under a rtems-<version> |
---|
| 52 | directory. They will extract themselves under a directory which |
---|
| 53 | is the name and version of the tool in question. For example, |
---|
| 54 | gcc-2.5.8.tgz will extract its contents into the subdirectory |
---|
| 55 | gcc-2.5.8. |
