I would like to put an OpenRISC SoC on a XuLA2 board (http://www.xess.com/prods/prod055.php), with a Spartan 6 LX25. I'm very new to FPGA's. Could somebody let me know if my strategy is sound or already doomed to failure?

I'm starting with the orpsoc2, Xilinx Atlys board. I copied the atlys directory to "xula2" and created a xula2 build. The XuLA2 has SDRAM, not DDR SDRAM, and the Xilinx Core Generator apparently does not support SDRAM. So I disabled the Xilinx MIG controller, and ran ISE to verify at least that fits. Implement completed with 1 timing error. I'm rerunning it with a slower clock speed. Once this works, I'm going to replace the MIG controller with the "8/16/32 bit SDRAM Controller" core. Does this sound correct?

Hi,

I am also interested in OpenRISC SoC and XuLA2. Do you got any success and project file up and may share?

Thanks, Lothar
