Altera's offerings are more extensive than just Nios II. http://www.altera.com/technology/embedded/overview/emb-overview.html also lists ARM Cortex-M1 and Freescale V1 ColdFire. That web page has a link to a list of additional third-party soft-core processors.

Hello experts,

We are (as many others) looking forward for Linux support for some applications that use "fork" and memory Allocation. In the mean time do you know of any possible alternative of a softcore with MMU that can be mapped into a CycloneIII 25?

Is it possible to add an MMU to the ColdFire or Cortex-M1?

Thanks in advance
