Hi Stephen,

So I can set both processors to Reset from the EPCS_controller but I'll have to supply different Offsets?

Will the SDK be smart enough to block these two areas for proper operation of malloc() say?

So say my auxilary processor only needs 8KB for its entire world and my main proc needs an unknown (but ~1MB) for its code with the balance of the 16MB for shared data. How would I set this up?

Are there any multi-proc examples that would demonstrate this? An Altera FAE had told me there was an 8 proc example floating around, but no mention of the use of the Flash Programmer/Bootloader.

I'll be happy to summarize and share my results once I'm up and running.

Thanks,

Ken
