== About the hook scripts ==
The common version of the hook scripts is located in the RobotCub repository, under <code>/usr/local/src/robot/iCub/pc104/startupscripts/opencall/hooks</code> (available, for example, on icubsrv). The procedure is to copy them to icubsrv's <code>/exports/code-pc104/pc104/hooks</code> and then to customize VisLab-specific settings there.

See pc104/Archive for old information.

The pc104 CPU board is located into the iCub's head and it runs a full Debian distribution that boots from a USB pen drive.

Booting and Mounting

After booting, the pc104 mounts a part of the hard-disk of icubsrv (the Dell XPS laptop, IP address 10.10.1.51) which contains the yarp2 and iCub repositories.

Repositories on icubsrv laptop

Note that the icubsrv laptop has 2 repositories:

  • /exports/code-64 for the laptop itself (compiled for 64bit, rarely used)
  • /exports/code-pc104 for pc104 (compiled for 32bit, this is the one that is actually used)

TODO: verify if the following instructions are still current

Therefore, if you want to update the repository used by pc104, you need to:

  1. open a pc104 shell window
  2. open an icubsrv shell window
  3. on icubsrv: svn update /exports/code-pc104/yarp2 and /exports/code-pc104/iCub (for now we need to do this from icubsrv because the version of svn on pc104 is too old)
  4. on pc104: cmake, make in $YARP_DIR (the files are physically on icubsrv, but we need to issue the command from pc104 to obtain 32bit binaries)
  5. on pc104: cmake, make, make install_applications in $ICUB_DIR (the files are physically on icubsrv, but we need to issue the command from pc104 to obtain 32bit binaries)
