-# OSX Install
-The toolchain should be easy to install on OSX platforms. Below are a few troubleshooting items found on Mountain Lion (10.8.2).
-
-## installing ftdi library
-- libftdi (allows you to have .so lib binary and the ftdi.h header)
-libftdi has been renamed to libftdi0, so either do:
-
-`port install libftdi0` (note that ports installs the tool to /opt instead of /usr, see next note)
-
-`brew install libftdi0`
-
-## iceprog make error on "ftdi.h not found"
-Note that Mac Ports installs to /opt instead of /usr, so change the makefile's first two lines to:
-
-` LDLIBS = -L/usr/local/lib -L/opt/local/lib -lftdi -lm`
-
-` CFLAGS = -MD -O0 -ggdb -Wall -std=c99 -I/usr/local/include -I/opt/local/include/`
-
-Basically you are indicating where to find the lib with -L/opt/local/lib and where to find the .h with -I/opt/local/include/
-
-## yosis make error on "<tuple> not found"
-This is a compiler issue, i.e., you are probably running on clang and you can circumvent this error by compiling against another compiler.
-Edit the Makefile of yosis and replace the two first lines for this, i.e., comment the first line (clang) and uncomment the second (gcc):
-
-`#CONFIG := clang`
-
-` CONFIG := gcc`
-
-## error "Can't find iCE FTDI USB device (vedor_id 0x0403, device_id 0x6010)." while uploading code to FPGA (e.g., `iceprog example.bin`)
-You need to unload the FTDI driver. (notes below are from Mountain Lion, 10.8.2).
-First check if it is running: `kextstat | grep FTDIUSBSerialDriver`
-
-If you see if on the kextstat, we need to unload it: `sudo kextunload -b com.FTDI.driver.FTDIUSBSerialDriver`
-
-Repeat the kextstat command and check that the driver was successfully unloaded.
-
-Repeat your `iceprog example.bin`
-
-Note: On newer OSes perhaps you need to also kextunload the `com.apple.driver.AppleUSBFTDI`
