Hi NIOS developers,

yesterday I've finished my NIOS Development Kit comparison. As an result of it I've expand the NIOS documentation end rebuild the board configuration. The work is accessible by patches:

(1) NIOS documentation
----------------------
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/cdk4nios/u-boot-20031125cvs-nios_doc.patch.bz2

In this patch you will find some more documentations:

    doc/README.nios              supplementations
    doc/README.nios_DK           Development Kit (DK) hardware overview
    doc/README.dk1c20_std32      NIOS CPU standard_32 at DK-1C20
    doc/README.dk1s10_std32      NIOS CPU standard_32 at DK-1S10
    doc/README.dk1s40_std32      NIOS CPU standard_32 at DK-1S10
    doc/README.dk20k200_std32    NIOS CPU standard_32 at DK-20K200

doc/README.nios_CFG_NIOS_CPU config. reference for CFG_NIOS_CPU_

(2) LAN91C111
-------------
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/cdk4nios/u-boot-20031125cvs-smc91111_fix.patch.bz2

Pending patch. We need it at NIOS platforms to avoid MAC setup failures. I'm not happy about the state of this patch ...

(3) new DK1C20 configuration
----------------------------
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/cdk4nios/u-boot-20031125cvs-dk1c20_reconfig.patch.bz2

main work:

* moves DK1C20 board path from board/dk1c20 to board/altera/dk1c20
* makes a new common source path board/altera/common (at this time for flash access stuff only)
* change/expand the Makefile
* change/expand configuration file DK1C20.h

Patch U-Boot and you can configure and make U-Boot for a standard_32 NIOS CPU at Altera's DK1C20. Type in:

Quoted 2 lines

make DK1C20_standard_32_config
make

NOTE: make DK1C20_config works again and force the standard_32 configuration as default.

(4) DK1S10 support
------------------
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/cdk4nios/u-boot-20031125cvs-dk1s10_support.patch.bz2

Patch U-Boot and you can configure and make U-Boot for a standard_32 NIOS CPU at Altera's DK1S10. Type in:

Quoted 2 lines

make DK1C20_standard_32_config
make

Any comments and notes to the new configuration framework are welcome. Scott, Patrice, what's your opinion ?

Have fun,
Stephan Linz
