Example project for Altera dev. kit and Linux

Hello all, Is there an example Quartus II project for Altera Cyclone development kit, which would be good for running Linux 2.6? Or is there any documentation that would explain how to create...

Hello Tervis.

You can try this:

1. Create a new project in Quartus and copy the ptf-file linux_1c20.ptf to your new project-directory.

2. Open the SOPC-builder by picking: Tools->SOPC builder.

.... and hopefully the SOPC-builder opens with the Microtronix-settings. This is a start anyway ;-)

.... remember to delete the cf-interface before compiling in SOPC-builder.

If you are having any problems compiling your Linux kernel afterwards and error says something like "IDE error" try removing IDE support in the kernel builder.

Hope you make it work.

Please let me hear how it works out for you.

Regards

Goon
