I've always wanted to scratch my itch for the OR1K and bring it up on an Altera Cyclone. I'd be interested in helping out (if I can find some time). If you're familiar with the Altera Nios, you might find the nios2 tree helpful as a template.

That's just a coincidence - we chose an non-existent (and from our point of view also somewhat unlikely) architecture for the example. I am not aware of any existing code or porting activities. But at least you already know what the name of the respective custodian repository would be :-) Best regards, Wolfgang Denk -- DENX Software Engineering GmbH, MD: Wolfgang Denk & Detlev Zundel HRB 165235 Munich, Office: Kirchenstr.5, D-82194 Groebenzell, Germany Phone: (+49)-8142-66989-10 Fax: (+49)-8142-66989-80 Email: wd at denx.de Nothing in progression can rest on its original plan.

Having played with the or1k simulator a long time ago, I made myself believe in the subversive idea that mentioning it in our documentation could possibly lead some attention to it. I'd still love to see a system that can be studied at (practically speaking) every level of the design... I did not dare dream of that actually coming true though ;) Cheers Detlev -- Practice random senselessness and act kind of beautiful. -- DENX Software Engineering GmbH, MD: Wolfgang Denk & Detlev Zundel HRB 165235 Munich, Office: Kirchenstr.5, D-82194 Groebenzell, Germany Phone: (+49)-8142-66989-40 Fax: (+49)-8142-66989-80 Email: dzu at denx.de From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Jeremiah Frick Date: Tue, 05 Feb 2008 13:59:18 -0500 Subject: [U-Boot-Users] OR1200 (OpenRISC) Support?
