  1. Source the appropriate settings script:
    • For Bash as user login shell:
      $ source <path-to-installed-PetaLinux>/settings.sh
    • For C shell as user login shell:
      $ source <path-to-installed-PetaLinux>/settings.csh

      Below is an example of the output when sourcing the setup script for the first time:

      PetaLinux environment set to '/opt/pkg/petalinux'
      INFO: Checking free disk space
      INFO: Checking installed tools
      INFO: Checking installed development libraries
      INFO: Checking network and other services
      WARNING: No tftp server found - please refer to "UG1144 <petalinux-version> PetaLinux Tools Documentation Reference Guide" for its impact and solution
  2. Verify that the working environment has been set:
    $ echo $PETALINUX

    Example output: /opt/pkg/petalinux

    Environment variable $PETALINUX should point to the installed PetaLinux path. The output may be different from this example based on the PetaLinux installation path.
