Oh wow, it supports the NIOS2. I remember my first real "engineering" internship basically involved bringing up a pseudo-OS for this thing, it was super new at the time, and the software - at least with whatever license my employer had at the time - was extremely limited. Essentially no OS, no memory protection, no threading (mostly needed for event dispatch on the platform I was working on) - I think other "softcore" CPUs existed at the time that had linux options but presumably I was being given fairly "they're an intern" tasks so I'm not sure how much they really care. Certainly the bulk of their interns were EE and I was the only one who could actually write software at the time, but on the other hand that meant I didn't know EE :D
