I've grabbed the works laptop for the long weekend to see if I can get something to build.  They're unlikely to lend me any of their dev/debugging hardware (and no spare licenses for their decent simulation software), but if I can go in armed with a bit file to program in next week it would be a good start.  There are a few test headers I can rig up for comms.

So, the next question is: will any of the projects run for me out of the box, or at least compile with minimal tweaking?  I don't mind it being in Verilog, but I don't like giving up, so want to see one of these boards mining!

What project file would you suggest I use as a staring point?  I tried the "LX150 makomk....." projects, but they resulted in thousands of warnings (just opened the project and clicked the build button).


Once I manage to get someone elses bitcoin code running then maybe you're right.  Annoyingly there is a decent amount of RAM on this board, it's connected via a relatively slow ARM processor.


Thanks!
