There are a variety of hard coded scripts flying around in the Internet, so try to stick to the proposed paths below.
Various things are likely to fail on your path, so take a good bag of good nerves.
Get Vivado, SDNET
- Go xilinx.com
- Create an account
- Browse/dig through the website until you find a HUGE sdnet download
- Browse/dig through the website until you find a REALLY HUGE vivado download
Install SDNnet
- Unpack the file, run xsetup, put stuff below /opt/Xilinx
Install Vivado
- Install libtinfo5 manually (if you don't, the vivado install hangs forever)
- Unpack the file, run xsetup, put stuff below /opt/Xilinx

mkdir -p ~/projects
cd ~/projects
git clone git@github.com:NetFPGA/P4-NetFPGA-live.git
Do NOT trust manuals to checkout a specific version, especially not v1.2.0, it is broken with vivado 2018.3. Also, DO NOT trust this manual, it might already be outdated at the time reading.
