    You could download the microtronix distribution and read the read-me files included there. They have a simple step-by-step tutorial which will have you running uCLinux in less then an hour!

    thanks for the reply,

    Got thr microtronics distribution

    I am following the Linux Quick Start Guide

    Creating Linux Kernel Project

    In IDE while creating new project (say) kernel_first

    after selecting proper ptf (I have tried with 1C20 and 1S40)

    when I click on Finish in New Project Wizard

    it gives error:

    Project cannot be created

    Reason:

    Resource /kernel_first/build/arch/nios2nommu does not exist

    How to resolve this?Whats the reason for this error?

    Thanks and Regards

    It looks like you haven&#39;t installed the uClinux plugin correctly.

    Note that installing the plugin in a directory with a space in its name (e.g. c:\program files\ucLinux) doesn&#39;t generate errors while installing, but does when you&#39;re trying to use it...

    Looks like version issue:

    I am trying with Nios II Destribution 1.4 which supports Nios II 5.0 IDE
