• Create the android tool directory/home/Android/and copy the script repo to/home/Android/bin.

  shawn@e014-anle-lnx:~$ cd /homeshawn@e014-anle-lnx:/home$ sudo mkdir androidshawn@e014-anle-lnx:/home$ sudo chmod 777 androidshawn@e014-anle-lnx:/home$ mkdir /home/android/binshawn@e014-anle-lnx:/home$ mv /home/shawn/repo /home/android/bin/shawn@e014-anle-lnx:/home$ chmod 777 /home/android/bin/repo

• Decompress eclipse to/home/Android/Eclipse/, and Android SDK to/home/Android/SDK/

  shawn@e014-anle-lnx:/home$ tar xf /home/shawn/eclipse-linux.tar.tgz -C /home/android/shawn@e014-anle-lnx:/home$ tar xf /home/shawn/android-sdk-linux.tar.tgz -C /home/android/

• Configure Environment Variables

  shawn@e014-anle-lnx:~$ sudo su# echo "PATH=/usr/local/jdk1.5/bin:/home/android/sdk/tools:/home/android/sdk/platform-tools:/home/android/bin:/home/android/eclipse:$PATHCLASSPATH=/usr/local/jdk1.5/lib:.JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/jdk1.5ANDROID_JAVA_HOME=$JAVA_HOMEGIT_SSH=sshexport PATH CLASSPATH JAVA_HOME ANDROID_JAVA_HOME GIT_SSH" >>/etc/bash.bashrc
