Installing the SDS "68K" and "PowerPC" starter-kit software |
By kind permission of SDS we are maintaining a mirror site for both the Version 6.5 and Version 7.X starter kits, primarily for the users of the "Laboratory Companion". For the most up-to-date versions of the software, users should directly access the Software Development Systems web site.
The "Laboratory Companion" was originally developed for use with the SDS 6.5 version of the starter kits. SDS has just released the latest version of the kits -- SDS 7.01 version.
There should be little difference in the use of these two versions. We will upgrade the "Laboratory Companion" to reflect any necessary changes as soon as possible. Until the changes are complete, it is recommended that you make use of the version 6.5 software which is only available from this mirror site.
The starter kit files are large and would take a long time for the average student to download to a home system over a 14K or 28K modem. I would therefore recommend the following approach to make it easy for students to take copies home.
