Build the libftdi-1.0 and new ftdi eeprom
From Milkymist Wiki
[edit] ftdi library variants
This is the chip support library, you will need it for your tools.
There are currently 3 independent variants. You need to select one!
| method | comment |
| D2XX | Binary drivers from [ftdichip.com] |
| libftdi | Git repository at [libftdi] however this requires libboost to compile which pulls in a ton of additional code and is less portable than the method below. |
| libftdi-1.0 | Git repository at [libftdi-1.0] this is the preferred method, discussed in the next steps |
[edit] 1. Build the libftdi-1.0
1.1. First, get a clone of the repository :
1.1.1. Create and go to a directory where you want to store the git projects
# mkdir ~/git # cd ~/git
1.1.2. Clone the repository
# git clone git://developer.intra2net.com/libftdi-1.0 Cloning into libftdi-1.0... remote: Counting objects: 2008, done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (942/942), done. remote: Total 2008 (delta 1285), reused 1643 (delta 1056) Receiving objects: 100% (2008/2008), 902.65 KiB | 449 KiB/s, done. Resolving deltas: 100% (1285/1285), done.
It'l create a directory called libftdi-1.0 with some file in it.
1.2. Prepare to build with the autotools
1.2.1. Go to the directory of libftdi-1.0, you need some file
# ln -s /usr/share/libtool/config/config.guess # ln -s /usr/share/libtool/config/config.sub # ln -s /usr/share/libtool/config/install-sh # ln -s /usr/share/libtool/config/ltmain.sh # ln -s /usr/share/libtool/config/missing # ln -s /usr/share/libtool/config/depcomp
1.2.2 Build the auto-conguration
# autoscan # aclocal # autoheader # autoconf # automake
1.3.1. Now, you can normally build and install the libftdi
# ./configure ...
# make ...
1.3.2. You need to be root for installing the lib
(root)# make install ...
1.3.3. Quit root, and if there's no error, you can continue to build ftdi_eeprom, you maybe needs run
# ldconfig.
[edit] 2. Build the ftdi_eeprom tool
2.1. Go to the directory ftdi_eeprom
# cd ftdi_eeprom
2.2. Replace it in libftdi-1.0/ftdi_eeprom/main.c :
