Building and installing
=======================

The building and installation procedure is described in section 2.1 in the
EtherCAT master documentation:

documentation/ethercat-doc.pdf

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For the impatient:

The procedure mainly consists of calling

$ ./configure
$ make modules

(and as root)

# make modules_install
# make install

...and copying the init script and sysconfig file from $prefix/etc to the
appropriate locations and customizing the sysconfig file.
