Nios2 EDS 6.1 installation problem in SuSE 10

Altera_Forum · ‎03-16-2007

Says unable to confirm Quartus II 6.1 installation, which was in /opt and works fine.

New to SuSE and Linux, please help with some detailed installation % configuration procedures.

Thanks

Set the QUARTUS_ROOTDIR environment variable, and then try to re-install.

Nios2EDS was installed successfully. (after reboot)

According to prompt instruction:

added

QUARTUS_ROOTDIR=${QUARTUS_ROOTDIR:-/....}

export QUARTUS_ROOTDIR

then did ./nios2-ide in /nios2_6.1/bin/eclipse

failed as:

An environment variable required by the Nios II IDE is not set.

The environment variable is QUARTUS_ROOTDIR.

How where to set that, like slacker mentioned.

Thanks

You should also add your LM_LICENSE_FILE environment variable to env.sh. Then, I'd advise doing the following:

1. Executing $SOPC_KIT_NIOS2/sdk_shell.

- This gives you a bash shell with your environment setup, properly.

2. If you don't prefer or like using Bash (like me), just...

- printenv > nios_full_env.txt

3. The file nios_full_env.txt now has all of the environment necessary to design with Nios II and SOPC Builder.

4. Just copy or translate the contents of this file into whatever format your "shell of choice" likes to see.

Easier than Windows? No.

More flexible, powerful, and easier to manage multiple versions? Hell yes! :-)

Problem solved by adding those environmental settings in env.sh to .profile.

Thanks for help.
