Viivi Installation Stage B

Here the Viivi installation process of Stage B is summarized briefly.

Use the Boot-Up File

Here we will boot Viivi in a handy way by using a boot-up file.
  1. Check the boot-up file
    Depending on your platform, choose one (within your head) from the boot-up files in the Viivi system directory:

  2. Try to run the boot-up file
    Most of the cases, the boot-up file can boot Viivi as it is.

    In the terminal/CMD window, change the directory to the Viivi system directory.
    (Here the home directory on Windows platform is assumed as C:\Users\ilma\.)
    	$ cd ${HOME}/Viivi/⮠			for Unix-like platforms (sh system) ($ is the shell prompt)
    	% cd ${HOME}/Viivi/⮠			for Unix-like platforms (csh system) (% is the shell prompt)
    	> cd C:\Users\ilma\Viivi\	for Windows platforms (> is the cmd prompt)
    

  3. Now try to run the boot-up file in the current directory with an argument-command "-K", as
    	$ ./viivi -K⮠		for Unix-like platforms (sh system) ($ is the shell prompt)
    	% ./viivi -K⮠		for Unix-like platforms (csh system) (% is the shell prompt)
    	> .\viivi -K⮠		for Windows platforms (> is the cmd prompt)
    
    If you see the Viivi's prompt
    	> 
    at the end of the output, then the installation process at Stage B was successful.

  4. As we did in Stage A, try to input 30 and (exit) to see the same results.

In the above check, we provided the argument command "-K" to boot Viivi in the kernel-mode.
You can boot Viivi also in the IDE-mode with the argument command "-G" as

	$ ./viivi -G⮠		for Unix-like platforms (sh system) ($ is the shell prompt)
	% ./viivi -G⮠		for Unix-like platforms (csh system) (% is the shell prompt)
	> .\viivi -G⮠		for Windows platforms (> is the cmd prompt)
To quit the IDE, please choose from the "File" menu on the controller to the item "exit Viivi".
(The basic operating instructions are briefly summarized in a Simple Tutorial.)


If you succeeded in the installation Stage B here, you can continue to use Viivi in this style.
But it must be troublesome that you have to specify the path to the boot-up file (in the case here "./" or ".\") at the head of the command line.
In the next Stage C, we will make it possible to boot Viivi from everywhere without the path-specifier, using environmental variables.


Do you have a problem here?
Please refer to Troubled at Stage B.
