Re: Discussion and Development of a 'MiSTer 2.0' Modular Hardware Platform

For what it's worth and speaking as someone with virtually zero knowledge of the actual layers here, I think you should work from the software side before you worry about which exact chip to pivot to. A great deal of work has accreted for the DE10 and the Cyclone V in general, and even if you have a very viable chip you are not going to see a 100% ...

Re: Digikey Has DE10-Nano Boards in Stock Currently (13/05/2023)

I ended up going to Terasic directly. After speaking with Linda (who was great) about getting one from USA, the shipping costs went from $45 to more like $25, and the cost ended up being the same or less than Digikey/Mouser after their tax + ship expenses. Got here in 2 days. If anyone just wants one now, I'll reiterate the advice stated elsewhere ...

Re: Exec format error

You need to rebuild your binary for the MiSTer. "Exec format error" is to say that your machine cannot interpret the binary in the file as CPU instructions; Ensure that you get an ARM binary and not an x86 one if it was pre-compiled.

If it is a shell script, ensure that the header is included.

Re: Irem M92 Core Available

Congrats on getting it into main wickerwaka! I'm curious to try out In The Hunt in particular once my DE10 gets here.

Re: Learning path for FPGA

Thanks all for this info! I am a software eng by trade, but I half got the MiSTer as a learning tool and half as an emulator box... For those who are also just getting started, I found a series of more "MiSTer oriented" videos in the form of someone developing a core from scratch in a number of videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qxgM...

Re: Digikey Has DE10-Nano Boards in Stock Currently (13/05/2023)

Heads up to others because I got duped by Digikey: If you see a short lead time posted, treat it with a healthy amount of skepticism. I ordered a DE10 on Apr. 3 with a lead time of Apr. 7. On Apr. 7 rather than a shipping notification they moved the date back to Jun. 8. I suspect they will get restock at the end of the month but I might end up canc...
