I don't have QQ.

You need two PCs, use the windows XP with quartus 5.1sp1 and nios2 5.1sp1, which is used to compile hardware and download sof/elf/flash.

Another Linux PC, (does not need quartus), used to build software, (tools/kernel/apps). Run a samba server (or client) on Linux PC, so that they can share files.

The zip files are at the end of post#1 in the thread.

You can use the Linux distribution which you are familiar. You should use the latest release of it. And you should have gcc 3.xx .
