168 Installation script has an option for advanced or resumed installation.
Advanced mode:
the script only downloads and installs the required tools. Dependency libraries and tools are checked during individual tool compilation. Furthermore, the install directory is not added to the system PATH. You have to do it yourself. Libusb, libftdi and Icarus Verilog are supposed to be installed by the user.
Resumed mode:
the script checks if the dependency libraries and tools are installed before doing anything. It also adds the installation directory to the system PATH variable for bash shells on HOME/.bashrc. Libusb, libftdi and Icarus Verilog are automatically installed for you.

Non standard configuration scripts that require or1200_defines.v to be tweaked will ask before doing so and backup the correspondent files.

158 Adding de2_115_board port, thanks to Richard Hasha.

Support to JSP (JTAG Serial Port) working well. Also provided by Richard Hasha.

Different interconnect configurations per board are not straightforward on MinSoC. New added modules or definitions for addresses have to be carried over to other boards. Furthermore, extra modules can be shared among all projects. Thus, it is better to have this centralized:
-Removing interconnect configuration from minsoc_defines.v. There is an interconnect_defines.v file on rtl/verilog. The software counterpart is interconnect.h on sw/drivers.

Including a jsp firmware. It is basically the uart firmware but using JSP instead. Added to all board configure scripts to be compiled on configuration.

prj/srcs extended to include jsp and interconnec_defines.v.

spartan3e_starter_kit_eth lost UART (does not fit) and uses JSP instead now.

144 Updating configure scripts. Calling make into the right directories now. rfajardo 4762d 17h /minsoc/trunk/backend/spartan3e_starter_kit/configure
142 Updating configure.sh:
1) we don't patch the trunk version.
2) it is better to re-compile the firmwares on reconfiguration. So compiling firmwares went to configure scripts instead.

backend/xxx/configure: compiling firmwares here now.
rfajardo 4762d 17h /minsoc/trunk/backend/spartan3e_starter_kit/configure
141 Merging with rc-1.0 revision 140. I doubt rc-1.0 will still change much in the last days. rfajardo 4762d 17h /minsoc/trunk/backend/spartan3e_starter_kit/configure
105 Updating configure scripts to copy Windows synthesis launch script setup.bat from either minsoc/syn/altera or minsoc/syn/xilinx to minsoc/syn. rfajardo 4789d 19h /minsoc/trunk/backend/spartan3e_starter_kit/configure
97 As proposed by Javier Almansa automatically generated project files for simulation and synthesis are out of revision control. Instead, the backend configure scripts run the prj/Makefile now to generate the project files prior to configuration of SoC for a specific board. rfajardo 4833d 19h /minsoc/trunk/backend/spartan3e_starter_kit/configure
87 Synchronizing scripts to behave exactly the same. rfajardo 4839d 12h /minsoc/trunk/backend/spartan3e_starter_kit/configure
86 Updating configure script messages. rfajardo 4839d 13h /minsoc/trunk/backend/spartan3e_starter_kit/configure
85 Central project definition under prj. Synthesis and simulation take their project files from here. rfajardo 4839d 13h /minsoc/trunk/backend/spartan3e_starter_kit/configure
69 backend update:
-minsoc_bench_defines.v
-gcc-opt.mk
Both files should now be under minsoc/backend to proper system functionality.
backend subdirectories have been given those files. Configure script updated accordingly.

They are searched there from system scripts and Makefiles.
-sim/bin/minsoc_verilog_files.txt has the files for Icarus Verilog, minsoc_bench_defines.v is now referenced from backend directory.
-sw/support/Makefile.inc now references to gcc-opt.mk inside backend.

backend/spartan3e_starter_kit_eth:
-It is the system configuration for Spartan 3E Starter Kit with Ethernet.
rfajardo 4963d 10h /minsoc/trunk/backend/spartan3e_starter_kit/configure
66 spartan3e_starter_kit requires special configuration of or1200_r3.

For that, configure script was specially adapted and that is reported on script execution.

For release-1.0 of MinSoC this should not be required, because or1200_r1 already has the
required configuration.
rfajardo 4965d 15h /minsoc/trunk/backend/spartan3e_starter_kit/configure
64 firmware makefiles:
-every firmware makefile has now complete dependency. This also includes dependency on files under minsoc/backend (target specific files). That means, that if some target specific header changes, the support library dependent on it will be compiled. That will always happen, even if you compile the uart firmware. In other words, if you want to use uart firmware, you can always simply compile uart by issuing make all. If anything has changed, backend files, support library, drivers, it will update everything for you.
-TODO: dependency can be automatic created by using make together with gcc. Use it instead of declaring all dependencies manually.

Makefile system for synthesis:
-the dependency for every implementation step has been checked and is working fine.
-Makefile plus support files have been moved to minsoc/syn/src
-make usage is still under syn through files generated by backend bashscripts
Backend:
-files under backend are target specific files used for the system to work
-firmware compilation
-system simulation
-system implementation
-This directory is populated by visiting one of its subdirectories and typing ./configure

backend/spartan3a_dsp_kit:
-working on FPGA

backend/spartan3e_starter_kit:
-has to be tested

backend/ml509:
-missing files have to be copied and adapted, configure script has to be copied and adapted

backend/std:
-include files necessary for firmware compilation and system configuration
-it does not include files for synthesis and is not synthesizable
