Compiling DE1 version from source   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #10 of 327 |
Hi Tobiflex, et al.

Had no probs compiling the DE1 version from the source code.

Only change I had to make was the path for hostrom.vhd init file,
which several people have already mentioned.

Will try it with the new Q72 service pack 1 early in the week.


The new xmas tree lights during disk activity are pretty sexy :)

Now to start tinkering with it.....

All the best,
Leslie

p.s. Uploaded a photo of my setup to the Photos section.
