/challenges-projects/design-challenges/path2programmable/b/blog/posts/install-an-ubuntu-virtual-machineI installed the Vivado tools in Windows when I went through other tutorials in preparation for the training. However, Ubuntu is used in training given the use of PetaLinux. I found the latest PetaLinux Tools Documentation Reference Guide UG1144 (v201en-USTelligent Community 12https://community.element14.com/challenges-projects/design-challenges/path2programmable/b/blog/posts/install-an-ubuntu-virtual-machineMon, 14 Oct 2019 15:11:24 GMT93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:b472858f-89af-48b6-9b6f-33191f1f962fnerdyupdates2<p>My heart sunk a little when I saw we needed to do all this rather than just install the Xilinx tools on WIndows. Have you had any luck installing the Xilinx tools? I set up the VM and everything seems fine, but I haven&#39;t been able to set up the tools. The Xilinx SDx .tar.gz file gets corrupted somehow when copying from the VM shared folder to the VM desktop. There is no error when copying to the desktop, but when extracting and/or running md5sum on the file once on the desktop, I get Input/output error and it fails to extract and/or perform the md5sum. When I run m5sum on the file in the shared folder, it eventually reports the same value Xilinx provides, so I know something is wrong with copying it from the shared folder to the desktop.</p><img src="https://community.element14.com/aggbug?PostID=7967&AppID=242&AppType=Weblog&ContentType=0" width="1" height="1">https://community.element14.com/challenges-projects/design-challenges/path2programmable/b/blog/posts/install-an-ubuntu-virtual-machineSun, 13 Oct 2019 20:44:35 GMT93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:b472858f-89af-48b6-9b6f-33191f1f962fFred272<p>I wonder if WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) would do the trick? I&#39;m planning to try that soon.</p><img src="https://community.element14.com/aggbug?PostID=7967&AppID=242&AppType=Weblog&ContentType=0" width="1" height="1">
