In order to install the distribution that comes with the Diax HBS1's follow these guidlines.

Log in as root.

$ # ensure that your envronment is up to date
$ yum install gcc binutils gzip make diffutils bison flex libncurses-devel zlib
$ # make a directory to work in, e.g. /home/eml1
$ mkdir -p /home/eml1
$ cd /home/eml1
$ # copy the distribution CD from bren
$ scp <your login>@bren.hih.au.dk:~/tmp/Diax.tar.gz .
$ # unpack the distribution
$ tar zxf Diax.tar.gz

A directory named Diax-Cd is created. In the build directory are the software.

$ # compile the uBoot
$ cd u-boot-1.1.2; sh build.sh
$ # compile the uClinux
$ cd ../uClinux-dist; sh build.sh

Copy the compiled packages to the tftp server. Hint: Can be built in the build.sh script in the uClinux distribution
