Re: [partial-reconfig] Virtex-4 bitstream

[kw@xxxxxxxxxx]

Hi there;
if you know the part number, then you just knows the addressing. it's
hard-coded in the ise. The way to figure it out is to create a partial
stream which only modify a small part of the circuit that you understand
well, e.g. one or two frames manually modified in FPGA editor by yourself,
and open the partial bitfile with hex editor to study it. And i remember
there use to be some xilinx documents on how the bit file works on older
virtex. putting all these small pieces together, and you get it.

Good luck.
