Our distribution contains a time limited .sof for each of the Altera Dev Boards. The Quartus Project used to generate this .sof was heavily based on the "full featured" Project from Altera which uses the 'f' version. I'm sure Linux would run comfortably on the 's' version (and we've had it running on this version in-house); you would see a bit of performance decrease due to the loss of the data cache. I don't think we've been brave enough to try it on an 'e' version, although you've piqued my curiosity. I can't see why it wouldn't work but I think you would take quite a performance hit. mike
