1. XRT installaon requires Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL) and a related repository.
The inial setup depends on whether you are using RedHat or CentOS.
For Redhat:
a. Open a terminal window and enter the following command:
$ sudo yum-config-manager --enable rhel-7-server-optional-rpms
This enables an addional repository on your system.
b. Enter the following command to install EPEL:
$ sudo yum install -y https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-
release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
For CentOS:
• Enter the following command in a terminal window:
$ sudo yum install epel-release
This installs and enables the repository for Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL).
2. Run the following two commands to install kernel headers and kernel development packages.
Ensure that uname is surrounded by backcks ( `) and not single quotes ('):
$ sudo yum install kernel-headers-`uname -r`
$ sudo yum install kernel-devel-`uname -r`
Note: If these yum commands fail because they cannot nd packages matching your kernel version, set
up a Vault repository. For more informaon, see related topic, Creang a Vault Repository for CentOS.
3. Aer the above command completes, reboot your machine.
4. Download both the XRT and deployment plaorm installaon packages associated with your
card from the Geng Started tab in one of the following locaons:
