Installing NSCLDAQ with Knoppix:  Tuesday, February 01, 2005

Knoppix is a Cd-live Debian linux distribution. 
It also offers a relatively simple to use installer.
NSCL is pleased to offer a binary installation of
its nscldaq/nsclspectcl distribution for Knoppix-3.7

All of the downloads referred to in these instructions
can be found in http://www.sourceforge.net/nscldaq
Follow the "Files" link near the top of the page and
look for Knoppix-install-3.7


To install Knoppix and NSCLDAQ you must

1. Download the Knoppix-3.7EN.iso and create a CD from
   this ISO image.
2. Boot your target system from this CD.
3. When the KDE session comes up, using Start->KNOPPIX
   start a root shell.
4. Install Knoppix on your hard drive in this root shell
   using the command:
      knx2hd
   This will start up a graphical prompter that will lead you through
   the installation.  If you are not yet very linux adept, choose the
   'beginner' installation.
5. Once Knoppix is installed, reboot from the hard drive
   At the root shell type:
     shutdown -r now
   You'll be prompted to take the cd out of the drive and hit enter
   to complete the reboot and to ensure the system boots from the hard
   drive.
6. Log in as root to your new Knoppix system.  To do that you'll
   need to either login, get a terminal window and then su or
   do a Control-Alt-F1
   and then login directly as root as Knoppix disbles root logins at
   the KDE prompt.
7. Knoppix does not, by default, start the ssh server remedy this
   for now and later by:
       /etc/init.d/ssh start
       ln -s /etc/init.d/ssh /etc/rc5.d/S99ssh
8. Download the NSCLDAQ binary distribution for knoppix.
   nscldaq-knoppixinstall-3.7.tar.gz
9. Put the tarball into a clean directory, unpack it
   and install:

    tar xzf nscldaq-knoppixinstall-3.7.tar.gz
    ./install

When this procedure is done, you should have a running NSCL DAQ system.
Reboot the system to be sure that spectrodaq comes up on reboot as it should.


All nscl software is installed in /usr/opt:
/usr/opt/spectrodaq    - spectrodaq-pregt
/usr/opt/sbsdaq        - nscldaq-8.0-pre1 built for the SBS/bit3 PCI/VME bridge.
/usr/opt/daq/wiernedaq - nscldaq-8.0-pre1 built for the Wiener pcida/vc32 bridge.
/usr/opt/spectcl       - SpecTcl-3.0-pre1
/lib/modules           - Device drivers and load scripts for the bus bridges.
/etc/init.d/nscldaq    - DAQ startup script


Note that all of this stuff works with the default knoppix compilers (gcc/g++ v3.3.5-5).
