12/15/2021, 5:31 AMCan anyone recommend me a link on how to install openlane, xschem, netgen, magic and skywater correctly?
I actually have mine installed in ubuntu OS running in vmware but sometimes I get error result. I'm not sure if it is working correctly.
I did run a test in openlane and did run a non interactive mode in using spm design and task 1 file in workshop and it works fine. The non interactive mode for spm works well too. However if I do run using spm design in interactive mode I got error after the run_routing stage.

12/15/2021, 5:59 AM@User Thanks for answering. I did installed magic as instructed in open circuit design website but whenever I used magic i have to write in "magic -T sky130A" to use skywater technology. From what I see in the videos in youtube they just type magic without technology parameter and magic opens with skywate technology rightaway.
As for xschem I did follow stefan instruction in youtube. I think I installed it properly. Thanks
