Downloading and Installing the Development Kit

Once downloaded, the kit can be installed on a compact flash card. Copy rokudev.cramfs and mountsdk.roku to the CF card. Once the CF card is inserted in the Roku, it is available as /mnt/flash1.

Change to the /mnt/flash1 directory, and run the mountsdk.roku script. Now the sdk is available for use. The header files are in /usr/local/include/roku/. The compiler and other development tools are available:
