Re: [microblaze-uclinux] Newbie question about external ram executability

[Wade.Maxfield@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Hi,

  Thanks Claudio.  From what I see, that app note matches what we are

  It did tell me a few things I did not know, however.

thanks again,

Hi,
I suggest you to look at the application note XAPP482, especially at

Cheers,
Claudio Lanconelli
