(they containg > up to 4 PPC cores). Rudolf, We have ported Linux to the Virtex II Pro last summer. We are currently working to finish it on a particular standard board that holds a V2P4 (V2P with a single PowerPC 405), SRAM, SDRAM, Flash, Xilinx SDRAM controller (soft core), Xilinx 10/100 Ethernet MAC (soft core), UART (soft core), ... The board already boots Linux and we expect to publish that code in a few weeks from now. > Also any links regarding Linux and those FPGAs are appreciated.

It would be interesting to know which peripherals you require (in soft core or hard core) to check which drivers are required. Did you start with a certain V2P evaluation board, or still evaluating your options. U-boot has initial support for the V2P. When we are ready with this port, the support will be expanded for this board.
