Hello. I'm answering your questions:

1. I installed the netfpga-base package with yum, the 2.1.0 version;
2. I followed that tutorial, and the installation went well;
3. For the regression tests I had a problem: I did not have a 4-port
NIC to use with the 4 NetFPGA interfaces, so I tryed the regression
test suite just with two connections: some initial tests went well
without error, some others failed, but I thought this could be because
there were some interfaces not connected;
4. When I say commands, I mean that i launch the controller with
controller ptcp:6633 -v
and then I do the ofdatapath and ofprotocol this way:
ofdatapath punix:/var/run/dp0 -i nf2c2,nf2c3 -v
ofprotocol unix:/var/run/dp0 tcp:localhost:6633 -v

How I said before, the nf2c3 interface is connected with the eth0 of
the pc, and the nf2c2 is connected with the eth1 of the cube itself; I
should have managed to ping the eth1 address with the pc, but i
couldn't.
I hope you could help me.
