Hi Tim, For Alpha we looked at a specific platform (Tsunami) and had documentation about the particular platform requirements as to where the various PCI configuration and devices are mapped, how memory mapping and translation for the devices works, etc. For some platforms these details can be hard find, so you might have to try and reverse engineer them. The best plan is to see what you can find documentation about, and run with that. I'm not sure how Gabe selected the x86 platform. For the ARM platform that I'm working on at the moment, I'll be selecting a platform ARM developed.
