| If your host platform is Windows then use the [http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=114505&package_id=160396 Windows Installer/Updater] package. Otherwise you may proceed with manual installation.
| | #REDIRECT [[Getting_Started]] |
| | |
| The first thing that you need to do is create a folder for the devkitPro toolchains. Start by opening a terminal - on OSX use the apple key + space, then type terminal. In the terminal window type the following command to create a new folder - all these commands are executed by pressing the return key.
| |
| | |
| mkdir -p /opt/devkitpro
| |
| | |
| When we're done the layout for your devkitPro folder should end up like this, each folder links to the appropriate sourceforge package.

| Nothing else should be placed inside these folders unless otherwise instructed by the devkitPro toolchain maintainers. On Windows several of these folders are removed and replaced by the update system.
| |
| | |
| The first package to install is the devkitARM tarball, obtained from the [http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=114505&package_id=124207 devkitARM] link shown above. Download the appropriate tarball for your host platform - the files are named as devkitARM_<revision>-<processor>-<os>.tar.bz2.
| |
| | |
| Once the file is downloaded then you need to extract it into the devkitpro folder
| |
| | |
| cd /opt/devkitpro
| |
| tar -xvjf <file you downloaded>
| |
| | |
| Obviously replace <file you downloaded> with the name of the file obtained from sourceforge. On OSX you can simply drag & drop the downloaded file into the terminal window to get the file path.
| |
| | |
| Now you need to obtain the support libraries for your target platform - we'll start with the Nintendo DS libraries.
| |
| | |
| Download the latest binary of [http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=114505&package_id=151608 libnds] then create a new folder and extract the tarball from the terminal window as before. '''Note:''' This is the file without "-src-" in the name.
| |
| | |
| mkdir libnds
| |
| cd libnds
| |
| tar -xvjf <libnds tarball>
| |
| | |
| Again, replace <libnds tarball> with the name of the file obtained from sourceforge. On OSX you can simply drag & drop the downloaded file into the terminal window to get the file path.
| |
| | |
| Now download [http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=114505&package_id=197264 libfat-nds], this is the libfat-nds tarball and may not be in the release at the top of the list. This should be extracted to the same folder as the libnds tarball earlier.
| |
| | |
| tar -xvjf <libfat-nds tarball>
