Starting the Evaluation Software

3.1 Booting the Host Computer

Before booting your host computer, ensure that the LiveUSB flash drive is correctly plugged into a USB port on the
host computer.

Switch on your host computer. You may have to interrupt the boot process in order to instruct the BIOS to boot from
the LiveUSB flash drive instead of the internal hard drive.

The host computer boots into a preconfigured Fedora environment.

NOTE: Your host computer may have a graphics driver that is not compatible with the default boot settings. In this
case you will see distorted graphics or no graphics at all. If you have this issue, please consult Appendix C:
Troubleshooting Graphics Issues on your LiveUSB Host.

3.2 Accepting the Agreements

You will then be presented with several License Agreements to read and several Product Evaluation License
Agreements
to accept. Click ACCEPT to accept each agreement and proceed.

3.3 Obtaining an Evaluation License

Before you begin to evaluate the features of the Wind River tools included on the LiveUSB, you will be required to
obtain an evaluation license. This requires an Internet connection, either on the host on which you will be running the
evaluation or, in the case of Manual License Activation, an Internet connection on some other available machine.

Whichever method you use, the license is valid for any machine on which the LiveUSB runs.
