new version of NUE (IA-64 LDK) available for downloads
Hello,
I wanted to let you know that there is now a new version of the HP IA-64 Linux Development Kit (LDK) available for free download at:
http://www.software.hp.com/LIA64
The LDK allows users to easily (most of the time, no makefile modifications required) port/develop Linux/ia64 applications on their Linux/ia32 systems. You can compile, RUN and DEBUG the generated binaries using the HP ski IA-64 simulator included in the kit.
It is also possible to do kernel developments and boot the latest Linux/ia64 kernel using this simulator.
The full environment has been tested on Redhat6.2, 7.0, 7.1 versions and should be fine on most other RPM-based distributions. You need about 400MB of disk space to install the kit. Upgrading from previous versions is supported.
The new version includes:
- an updated NUE filesystem
- the latest gcc-2.x stable version for Linux/ia64
- glibc version 2.2
- an updated version of ski (0.943)
- an updated root filesystem for booting the Linux kernel with the simulator
You can download the 4 RPMS for free from the web site mentioned above or have a CDROM sent to you.
