and Target Platform
1. Run the following command to install kernel headers. Ensure that uname is surrounded by
backticks ( `) and not single quotes ('):
$ sudo apt install kernel-headers-`uname -r`
2. After the previous command completes, reboot your machine.
3. Download both the XRT and deployment platform installation packages associated with your
card from the Getting Started tab on the respective Alveo card product page:
• Alveo U200 Product Page
• Alveo U250 Product Page
• Alveo U280 Product Page
Note: Select the Vitis Design Flow tool version 2021.1 or greater.
4. Install the XRT installation package by running the following command from within the
directory where the XRT installation packages reside.
$ sudo apt install ./xrt*.deb
This will install the XRT along with any necessary dependencies. Follow the instructions
when prompted throughout the installation.
5. Unpack the deployment target platform tar.gz file into a single directory. The location of
the directory is not important, however the directory should not contain any other files.
6. Install the deployment packages. From within the directory where the installation packages
were unpacked, run the following command. This will install all deployment packages.
sudo apt install ./*.deb
Alternatively, you can install the deployment platform installation packages individually. If this
is the case, install them in the following order.
• Satellite controller firmware
• Card management firmware
• Base partition firmware
• Platform validation
