uClinux cares about which CPU to run it ,not the FPGA device. 

And the external devices' information is convert to system.h from *.ptf of your NiosII, then uClinux will understand your board. 

 

1. You just do a NiosII project like the projects in <Examples> dir without things your board not containing. 

 

2. make a linux kernel, rootfs... as the microtronix linux documents said. 

 

3. try to test it
