%SECTION0{name=ELDKDownload}% Downloading the ELDK You can either download the ready-to-burn ISO-images from one of the mirror sites (see %REF{type=Section,topic=ELDKAvailability,name=ELDKAvailability}%), or you can download the individual files of the ELDK from the development directory tree and either use these directly for installation or create an ISO image that can be burned on DVD-ROM. Change to a directory with sufficient free disk space; for the %IF{ "%ARCHITECTURE%" eq "powerpc" }% Power Architecture® version of the ELDK you need about 1.6 !GiB, or twice as much (3.2 !GiB) %ENDIF% %IF{ "%ARCHITECTURE%" eq "arm" }% ARM version of the ELDK you need about 510 !MiB, or twice as much (1.1 !GiB) %ENDIF% %IF{ "%ARCHITECTURE%" eq "mips" }% MIPS version of the ELDK you need about 350 !MiB, or twice as much (700 !MiB) %ENDIF% if you also want to create an ISO image in this directory.

Of course you can use the local copy of the directory tree directly for the installation, too. Please refer to section %REF{type=Section,topic=ELDKRebuilding,name=ELDKBuildSetup}% for instructions on obtaining the build environment needed to re-build the ELDK from scratch.
