on the CD image. The installer script will prompt you for installation of
this patch.

follows:
source <edk_install_dir>/setup.csh - Sourcing the
setup script sets or modifies the following environment variables:

- Set by the Xilinx EDK installer to identify the <edk_install_dir
>
- Points to $HOME/EDK by default
- $PATH

etc from your csh or tcsh shell window
Note: Environment settings apply only to the given shell windows
that the setup scripts was sourced in. If you open a new shell window you
must source <edk_install_dir>/setup.csh again.
