u-boot bootloader support for NIOS2

Hello,

did anyone already port the u-boot bootloader to a NIOS2 platform? I saw in the u-boot src code tree, that it already supports NIOS1, but unfortuneatly not yet NIOS2.

Regards

Swen

    You should post it here. I'm sure others will like to use it.

    Will do :-) In the meantime, there's a ready-to-go Nios1 tarball and pre-built binary/srec at:

    for anyone interested in trying out u-boot.

    Cheers,
