=Installing Xilinx Utilities=
==Downloading Xilinx Webpack==
[http://www.xilinx.com/support/download/index.htm www.xilinx.com/support/download/]
From the above webpage you can register and download the ISE webpack. Using the webpack allows for free licensing of the ISE and a few other utilities. You can also download utilities such as ChipScope, the SDK, and the EDK. The EDK is required for [[ECE 3534 Microprocessor System Design]]. All packages can be downloaded individually or as a large DVD image.
==How to Extract and Install==
After downloading the packages you should have a collection of files that look like this:
<pre>
Xilinx_11.1_ChipScope_SFD.tar Xilinx_11.1_SDK_SFD.tar
Xilinx_11.1_EDK_SFD.tar Xilinx_11.1_WebPack_SFD.tar
</pre>
Extract the ISE with the following command:
<pre>
tar xvf Xilinx_11.1_WebPack_SFD.tar
</pre>
cd into the extracted folder, ensure the install script has execute permissions, then run the installer:
<pre>
cd Xilinx_11.1_WebPack_SFD
chmod +x ./xsetup
sudo ./xsetup
</pre>
