Hi and thanks in advance for your help!

I'm trying to install intel-fpga-addon-for-oneapi-base-kit-for-a10gx-s10sx-linux on Ubuntu 20.04. The oneAPI base toolkit is already installed and working. However, this is what I get:

It looks like it is trying to install on RHEL using yum, but yum is not available in Ubuntu and apparently ubuntu 18.04 is supported. Any workaround that you are aware of?

Thanks!

See the following thread below.  The package from Intel assumes a much older kernel and thus will not work in Ubuntu 20.04, but you can try the following:
