Hi,

did you test that ? on what board ?

Warm Regards

Yes. I have tested it by compiling in cygwin for EP1C20. I tried to compile in IDE but got lot of errors. Had shortage of time so had to stop it.

Now I am trying to port it to a custom board with Nios2 and peripherals like RS 485, Lan chip - smsc 9111.

Hi shakthi,

It&#39;s not worth effort ... the source tree is designed to support multiple cpu architectures,

variants, and boards using the CLI in a unix environment.

You don&#39;t need the IDE for this -- you need to include the Nios system header

file in your u-boot tree ... and base the u-boot configuration macros on the Nios

system file macros.
