2 Finding around

Lets assume your base directory where your DROPS-sources are is $(HOME)/src. After checking out the files using CVS, you end up with a couple of directories:

l4/ the L4 directory, later referenced as $(L4DIR).    
l4linux-2.6/ L4Linux 2.6    

There might be others as well, likely Linux kernels, which are needed by some DROPS packages. Within the L4 directory, you will find

l4/kernel sources of L4 micro kernel implementations, primarily FIASCO.    
l4/pkg base directory of all DROPS packages.    
l4/tool tools for compilation, among them the IDL compiler DICE.    
l4/mk BID macros to control compilation and installation.    
l4/doc base directory for documentation, will also contain compiled packet documentation later.    
l4/include base directory for include files exported by packages.    
l4/lib base directory for compiled libraries.    
l4/bin base directory for compiled binaries (might be a symbolic link).
