[casper] Building a new romfs

2013-04-03 Thread John Ford
Hi all. We are going to attempt to update the standard romfs file system to support some additional stuff, like ssh and ???. Can someone give me a hint where to start? Or is there a better way? John

Does anybody have tested the sync line (pps) on the iadc of the new toolflow? Cheers, Andrea 2013/3/27 Andrea Mattana : > Hi all, > > I have tested the PPS over the sync0-1-2-3 output port of the iADC on > the new libraries with a very simple design and it seems that the > simulated PPS in input

Hi, Andrea, Are you seeing problems in simulation or on actual hardware? I just made a quick test model and the sync input was propagated fine in simulation. Can you please explain your symptoms in more detail? Which version of mlib_devel are you using? What hardware platform are you target

[casper] To disable the PAR timing check:

Hi CASPER team, I am working with the iBOB FPGA at 250 MHz and two iADCs at 1000 GHz in a correlator project. In the compilation I have a timing error ERROR: 1 constraint not met. PAR could not meet all timing constrain

Hi Isaac An alternative route might be to compile at 200 MHz, and then open the design with PlanAhead. In Planahead you can then bump it up to 250 MHz, and try to compile from there, with much more fine-grain control. As a bonus, you'll also be able to see where it's failing timing. I believe

[casper] Debian Sqeeze and BORPH

2013-04-03 Thread Ross Williamson
Hi All, I've been playing around in my spare time trying to get Debian squeeze as the OS for a ROACH board (possibly a bad/pointless idea but hey). The issue I'm facing is that I need a kernel with UDEV support in and so launched into cross-compiling one. The problem is finding a BORPH patch tha
