Not to discourage reading the documentation thourougly but...

The biggest hold back to starting the make on epics base is defining the environment EPICS_HOST_ARCH.   For your system, this will either be linux-x86 or linux-x86_64.  If you are looking to just take a test drive and run a softIOC on Linux then this is sufficient.  If not, you will need to configure your target environment, see the second link from Marcio below for supported platforms & compilers.

Once you have base built, Section 2 of the App Developer Guide will get you through setting up an IOC.  I would suggest getting the example up and running as a start.

Once this is up and running you will probably need some tools to "see" your IOC.  For this, look at Michael's section on EDM or take a look at CSS (http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/cs-studio/wiki).

Hello all !

I am new to EPICS and i want to install it under Scientific Linux CERN 5.5.
So please let me know the installation instructions.
 
 
    Michael Davidsaver wrote a tutorial, you can access here: https://pubweb.bnl.gov/~mdavidsaver/epics-doc/epics-starting.html
 
    For EPICS version 3.14.12 (the last one) see this link: http://www.aps.anl.gov/epics/base/R3-14/12-docs/README.html
 
    Probably you'll want to install synApps also. Choose the version based on the EPICS Release you've chosen. See the documentation and download of tar.gz in this page: http://www.aps.anl.gov/bcda/synApps/index.php
