Re: [microblaze-uclinux] Problem with uClinux demo

[Aurelian Lazarut <aurelian.lazarut@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi there,
In order to rebuild the hardware you need EDK6.1 with ISE6.1 + the
latest service pack SP3, I don't think will work with Webpack (or a hack
with files from webpack) 

If you describe your problem in more detail I'll try to help you.
and my first question is: for which architecture are you re-synthesizing
(XST) ?
