Installing and Running the Development Kit in Linux
LatticeECP2M PCI Express Development Kit User’s Guide
Generally, if you do not have the specific kernel version employed in this kit,
you may need to rebuild the driver (and possibly demo application) from the
source as described in the section, “Building Demo Binaries from Source
Code” on page 61. The kernel header files must be installed on your system
and you should be familiar with building kernel drivers from source code.
Installing the driver requires the root password.
If you need more information on this topic, a good resource is Linux Device
Drivers, by A. Rubini and J. Corbet. This book details all aspects of Linux
driver development.
