DM368EVM problem of setting up the DVSDK

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320DM368

Hi

I got my TMS320DM368 EVM from TI E-Store, and am having trouble with the setup.sh script. I am following the instructions in the TMS320DM368 Software Developers Guide.

I am running Win7 Pro on my computer, and have installed Ubuntu 10.04 via VMWare. 

There are two network cards on my computer, the wireless one connects to the internet, and the wired one connects to the target. I used NAT networking in vmware to access external internet (it seems to be working well), and adopted bridged networking in vm using static IP address to connect with the target. The procedure of setting static IP address is as show below.

I edited the '/etc/network/interfaces' files,  and added the following instructions

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.252
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.1.1
broadcast 192.168.1.255
However I don't know how to check whether it works well. Is it correct?
When I was installing the dvsdk_dm368-evm_4_02_00_06, I didn't connect the host with the target. Must you connect the Ethernet cable and RS-232 and power on the EVM when install the dvsdk?
I tried to execute the setup.sh script, and setup.sh eventually asks me if I want to run the minicom script. Doing so does bring up minicom, but it just hangs there forever. I can't see any activity on minicom terminal. I don't know what's wrong.
One more question, I restart the SAMBA after configuring it. I used this instruction '/etc/init.d/smbd restart', and get the following message: 

Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8) utility, e.g. service smbd restart

Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an Upstart job, you may also use the restart(8) utility, e.g. restart smbd smbd start/running, process 9265.

Is this a problem?

Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks.
