>The rest of this page explains how to compile and install a "bitstream" file to implement this processor in a cheap (about $50) FPGA board, then how to build Linux for that board and boot it to a shell prompt. >Numato: The cheapest usable FPGA development board ($50 US) the j2 build system currently targets is the Numato Mimas v2 (also available on amazon). It contains a Xlinux "Spartan 6" LX9 FPGA that can run a J2 at 50mhz, 64 megs of SDRAM, USB2 mini-B, and a micro-sd card slot. PDS: Nice! But, it would be an additional serious "would be nice"(!) -- if this could run on Lattice FPGA's / IceStorm Open Source Toolchain: https://www.latticesemi.com/Products https://www.latticesemi.com/Products http://www.clifford.at/icestorm/ http://www.clifford.at/icestorm/ https://github.com/YosysHQ/icestorm https://github.com/YosysHQ/icestorm
