re:Linux on Virtex4

Hi Rick,

I saw on linuxppc-embedded at ozlabs.org that you are trying to port (or =
better you did) monta vista linux to Avnet's V4FX Mini-Module. I will =
try to deal with the same thing. My design is basically the same: all =
features of MM incorporated in CoreConnect style architecture. I also =
tried with Multi Port Memory Controller (MPMC2) and ported (memory =
works, but for LAN I still need phy datasheet) the Gigabit System =
Reference Design (GSRD2) to Mini-Module.
By using the MPMC2 memory core you can connect PPC directly to memory =
using two PLBs (data and instruction separated). This way you might =
solve the CPU cache errata. The problem with MPMC2 is that it consumes A =
LOT of BRAM and logic. I tried to build a full featured system, but =
V4FX12 lacks logic for the purpose.
Is there a way that you can help me with running MV linux on my system?

Cheers,
