The method used to install Sourcery G++ Lite depends on your host system.
If you have received Sourcery G++ Lite on CD, insert the CD in your computer. On most computers, the installer then starts automatically. If your computer has been configured not to automatically run CDs, open My Computer, and double click on the CD. If you downloaded Sourcery G++ Lite, double-click on the installer.
After the installer starts, follow the on-screen dialogs to install Sourcery G++ Lite.
If you prefer, you can run the installer in console mode rather than
using the graphical interface. To do this, invoke the installer
with the -i console
command-line option. For example:
> /path/to/package.exe -i console
Start the graphical installer by invoking the executable shell script:
> /bin/sh ./path/to/package.bin
After the installer starts, follow the on-screen dialogs to install Sourcery G++ Lite.
If you prefer, or if your host system does not run the
X Window System, you can run the installer in console mode rather than
using the graphical interface. To do this, invoke the installer
with the -i console
command-line option. For example:
> /bin/sh ./path/to/package.bin -i console
