MS-DOS installation directories

You may install the software in any directory. The INSTALL program assumes that you are installing in C:\CYGNUS.

If you want to change the directory, do so at the beginning of the installation process.

If you are installing cross-development tools for more than one target, you must install them into different directories; otherwise, the second installation overwrites the first.

We recommend you use a directory structure that has the target name built-in, using the input where you’ll substitute your system name to build to the intended target, as in the following example (where, for instance, a Motorola 68k is M68KCOFF).

C:\CYGNUS\M68KCOFF\ ...your cross-development toolkit

If you use the input shown in the previous example, remember to type the following example’s input at your system prompt to reset your environment every time you switch targets. See Host names and Target names for more information on naming your cross-development toolkit’s target name, <target> .

\CYGNUS\<target>\SETENV
