The official release candidate is ready for download in the “Download” section. Please be patient with the file server, if you can’t get the file right away please try again later.

Any comments would be greatly appreciated, you can contact me at davidcabanis AT gmail DOT com .

Have fun with the release candidate, I’m planing the final release by the end of October if all goes well.

Why do we want to do that?

Persistant installations of liveCD gives us the best of both worlds. You are able to boot SCLive from most computers (LiveCD feature) but you can also modify the data as well as the system files.

This is almost like a hard drive install with the added benefit to be able to use it on most machine without any additional installation required.

In the context of SCLive, any modification that you will make to the existing projects will be safely kept on the USB Flash Drive.

The following video details one of the many ways to achieve a persistant installation.

Et Voila!

This short video is for the Linux novices. It  illustrates the boot options and boot sequence as well as the login steps required to start SCLive 3.0

Et voila!

This is a brief video illustrating the different applications accessible via the user interface. More sofisticated applications such as VHDL, Verilog and SystemC simulator are accessed through terminal commands and will be covered in greater depth in the next video presentations.

Voila!

Here is a very short proof of concept demo of SCLive 3.0. This covers a SystemC compilation, simulation and the waveform output.

More examples on their way.

Enjoy,
