<h3>Quick Guide to Use Linux-MIPS CVS Tree on Sourceforge</h3>

<ul>
<li> Login into CVS tree.

<blockquote><tt><pre>
cvs -d:pserver:ano...@cv...:/cvsroot/linux-mips login
</tt></pre></blockquote>
Press "Return" when prompted for password.  You only need to do this once on any machine.

<li> Check out a copy of the tree.

<blockquote><tt><pre>
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:ano...@cv...:/cvsroot/linux-mips co linux
</tt></pre></blockquote>

<li> To avoid name conflict, rename linux directory to sf-linux.  

<li> Take a look of <tt>sf-linux/Makefile</tt> and determine the kernel version.  Let us say it is v2.4.8.

<li> Goto <a href="http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/">http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/</a> to grab the right version of kernel source.  Unzip and untar it in the same directory as linux-2.4.8.

<li> 
<blockquote><tt><pre>
cd linux-2.4.8
cp -af ../sf-linux/* .
</tt></pre></blockquote>

<li> You can now develop linux for MIPS machines under linux-2.4.8 directory.  To start, find and use the default config under arch/mips/configs directory for your target board.
</ul>
