Re: [microblaze-uclinux] Flash help

[david moloney <moloned@xxxxxx>]

I have the same board and the very first release of the xbd file caused 
the EDK to crash altogether so it sounds like it still needs some work. 
In fairness to them they had fixed the problem on the day following my 
report but there do seem to be some fundamental QA problems, but given 
the price of $164 you're getting a lot of hardware for your money!

In terms of delivery I got my board within a week and some other people 
in the lab here in TCD got theirs within 2-3 weeks as they were not 
available ex-stock, so it sounds as if you were unlucky in having to 
wait >4 weeks. 

The only other person whom I'm aware of having worked on a port to the 
NuH board is a guy called Patrick Robin who posted some info. on his 
port earlier this year on this forum, but to date has not released the 
port. 

As it stands I'm waiting patiently for Richard's port which will save me 
reinventing the wheel, not to mention a lot of time and grief.
