[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!

+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 :
