Welcome to MinSoC. In order to put the system up and running you still have to follow two steps.
|
Welcome to MinSoC.
|
|
|
1. Follow the INSTALL.pdf document found in this same directory. It will guide you to install the OpenCores modules which are part of the MinSoC system but not delivered with it. Furthermore, it will guide you to install the tools required to compile OpenRISC firmware and to connect to the system (upload and debug firmware).
|
In order to put the system up and running you should first visit MinSOC's Wiki
|
|
that can be found at (http://minsoc.wikaba.com). There, you will find guidance
|
|
to retrieve and install the required tools, simulate and synthesize the design,
|
|
and to run and debug the first firmware on your FPGA.
|
|
|
2. Follow the HOWTO.pdf document found in this same directory. This document guides you to compile MinSoC firmwares, to simulate the system running its firmware, and to synthesize the system to create a FPGA bitfile to configure your FPGA. Finally, it also guides you in running your first firmware on your FPGA.
|
IMPORTANT: By any arisen problems, doubts or special requirements, take a look
|
|
into the FAQ pages (also in this very Wiki). It includes possible adaptations
|
|
you can easily make to the system, for the most reported problems using MinSoC
|
|
and the Advanced Debug System, and even some tweak possibilities. If you have a
|
|
problem which is not described there or you cannot make it work, please send us
|
|
an email to minsoc@googlegroups.com .

FINALLY: My system is up and running, what do I do next? The real system
|
|
documentation is the minsoc.pdf document. It gives a thorough insight into
|
|
MinSoC, its goals, design and ideas. It helps you to better understand the
|
|
system and can give you a good idea of what to do next, after your system is up
|
|
and running.
