INSTALLING
==========

If this package is used from LINUXBUILD, nothing needs to be done here.

As a stand alone package the Makefile contains a installation script (build
target install) invoked by 'make install' once, which does the following:
 1. fetches the latest linux-2.6 GIT repository from kerne.org
 2. Branches a LEON-x.y.z branch according to LINUX_GIT_COMMIT in VERSION file
 3. Applies all the patches from patches/ directory on the LEON

!! NOTE: any work in the branch named LEON-VERSION according to VERSION file will
         be lost during installation.



REQUIREMENTS
============

 - git
 - sparc-linux toolchain for LEON
