Can you please describe what Xilinx is? Also, what files are in the package and if possible, can you post a link or the code itself for the .sh file?

If the extension is .sh, you would run it with either "sh <name>.sh" or "run <name>.sh".

Give it a go and see what happens.

and they write that it works on Red Hat Enterprise 3 Linux*

Like XavierP commented, try executing the script by going to the directory where it is and running.

Code:

sh <file>.sh

Let us know if this works for you.

Xilinx is windows software, but it is rumored that the command-line tools can be run on WINE. You are still probably better off trying to figure out FreeHDL, GHDL, or gEDA.

@tuxdev
I went to the Xilinx site and they show the Webpack software for Linux as well (not just Windows.)

ahmed gamal · 07-23-2006, 03:09 PM

i tried
bash: run: command not found
bash-3.00# sh WebPACK_82i_SFD.sh
then i tried

bash-3.00# sh WebPACK_82i_SFD.sh
and it said
Verifying archive integrity...
and took alot of time
but
at the end
Error in checksums: 1258885539 is different from 1185425615
then what should i do????

I think your packages is corrupt if the checksums don't match.
