new system console tool

Hi All,

If somebody is interested in programming a Texas Instrument MSP430 microcontroller in-situ using an Altera USB-Blaster, I just added on the Nios Wiki a project which exactly do that.

It explains how to use the new 'system console' tool, available in the latest Quartus distribution (8.0).

Project contains schematic, SOPC builder/Quartus project , a sample MSP430 Motorola S-REC file and, of course, a TCL script managing the MSP430 programming (using MSP430 BSL feature).

See here : http://nioswiki.jot.com/wikihome/system%20console%20-%20msp430

This is a starting point, and I hope this will be usefull for the community.

Comments are welcomed.

Regards.
