 Hi Geo,

How about ready-made code to support sdram on altera?:

This was written by my buddy Stafford Horne

Give it a try and let me know how it goes...

Cheers

 Hi Alex,
 I see! That's indeed great, thanks! This is really good stuff Alex.
 
 Hi Kuba,
 Sorry the progress was so slow because crazy schedule at work.. for pilMCU 
 I'm stuck with mobile DDR SDRAM interface, it's not as straight forward as 
 SRAM so tentatively i'm planning to fabricate a FPGA board with Cypress Async 
 SRAM to be more near from our original implementation. I can share you the 
 planned schematics if you want to help.

Hi Geo,

 btw, if ever pilMCU is implemented, will PilOS work immediately over it?

Yes, the PicoLisp VM asm sources are the same. Just the low-level
interfaces, boot procedure etc. are different. I don't want to maintain
the pilMCU source tree separately, so we can backport to pilMCU later if
needed.

 Hi all,

 I'm happy to announce PilOS - The PicoLisp Operating System!

 It is a modification of the infamous PilMCU, which unfortunately doesn't
 seem to get off the ground. So in order not to have wasted all that
 effort, I decided to let it run on standard PC hardware, basically
 directly off the BIOS.

 In the future, we might think of utilizing it in embedded systems.

 I release it free to the public. It is currently just a toy project,
 which gave me lots of fun during the last two weeks.

 You can read more about it, watch a demo video, and download all at

I just tried PilOS - works on my qemu, will try on my actual PC later and 
report back.

*someone* will surely add network support at one point. maybe Alex, maybe 
someone else.

I think for him this is more a hobby side project, but as its free software, if 
anyone has any needs everyone is free to implement them ;-)

PS: Yeah I too really want to run servers with that eventually, so, yes, 
*someone* please implement network stack !

Alex, this is incredibly cool. It runs fine on win64 under qemu. This will
be fun to play with. Are you considering adding networking support in the
future? I imagine that would be quite difficult.

I was so excited I didn't read close enough

Also missing is - of course - networking (left as an exercise for the
reader ;).
