13 years agoPTF file in Qsys?
Hello,
While compiling uClinux, a command is required to send the hardware features and corresponding addresses i.e. "make vendor_hwselect SYSPTF='path to ptf file' ". However PTF file is generated by SOPC. Newer version of SOPC, Qsys does not generate a PTF file. To compile the uClinux for a environment created by Qsys, What can be used? Thanks.4 Replies

Instead, you should create a device tree from the sopcinfo file using sopc2dts. --dalon - Altera_Forum

Can you provide me a fresh source of uClinux that does not require the hwselect and can run on Nios II? - Altera_Forum
