Installing the Vivado tools on a Linux VM

The Xilinx Vivado tools aren’t supported on Windows 10.0 Home edition, so if you are using your home computer with this version installed on it, you won’t be able to follow the practical parts of this book. Only Windows 10.0 Enterprise and Professional editions are officially supported by the Vivado tools. However, there are many Linux-based Operating Systems (OSes) that Xilinx officially supports.

One potential solution to build a complete learning environment using your home machine is to install the Vivado tools on a supported Linux version, such as Ubuntu, which you can run as a VM by using the Oracle VirtualBox hypervisor to host it.

The Vivado tools are officially supported on the following OSes:

  • Windows: Windows Enterprise and Professional 10.0
  • RedHat Linux: RHEL7, RHEL8, and CentOS 8
  • SUSE Linux: EL 12.4, and SUSE EL 15.2
  • Ubuntu: From 16.04.5 LTS up to 20.04.1 LTS
