DE0:Customize Kernel Settings

[Altera_Forum]

HI,everyone ! 

I want to Customize my own uCinux kernel on DE0.I make menuconfig in the uclinux-dist directory and select the Customize Kernel Settings.IN Processor type and features\Platform a development board mdel should be selected.There are models such as ALtera DE2 Development board and ALtera Cyclone III 3c120 Development board excpet for DE0 Development board,so what can I do ? Which board should I select, or should I creat my own board model? Can anyone help me ? Thanks in advance!:)

My first suggestion is to use "make xconfig" instead of"make menuconfig". It is a graphic configration tool and you can ignore the Board Selection.  

--------- And the second, documents (http://www.nioswiki.com/@api/deki/files/342/=opensource_linux_niosii_user_guide_-_fixed_toc.doc) and examples (http://www.nioswiki.com/linux) from Nios Wiki will help you a lot.  --------- The third is you may be careful with the kernel because the memory is very limited for Linux design on DE0.

I start with a minimum hardware systems. But you know ,the IO pins and chips on DE0 board are quite diffrent from those on DE2 board and other boards supported by nios2-linux.As a result ,the device drivers may not apply to DE0 board!
