Hi Folks, 

 

What OS would people recommend a newbi implement on his Nios-II system, so that he can run TCP/IP, UDP, Ethernet etc. 

 

I am looking for an OS with the most support / devkit / Forum experiance. 

 

uCLinux seems popular, but I have no experiance of implementing an OS on Nios, so good documentation, tutorials and reference examples are a key concern. 

 

TTFN.

Sure, you should try uClinux. It is not difficult. 

Please follow the uClinux guide on the Nios Wiki, and try out the prebuild image first. 

Then setup a Linux PC, install the binary toolchains and uClinux-dist. 

You can find with google for documentation, tutorials and reference examples.
