Create your own product
The uClinux-distr NIOS "Products" in fact are directories in the vendor/Altera folder.
To create your own Product you cando the following:
- with "make menuconfig" choose a product that can be used as a starting point for your efforts (say "nios2")
- do "make clean"
- copy the directory of this product and give it an appropriate name (say "myproject") to sit besides the original one.
- do "make menuconfig" and select your new product:
- Vendor/Product Selection -> Altera Products -> (X) myproduct
- do "make menuconfig" -> Kernel/Library/Defaults Selection -> [*] Default all settings (lose changes)
- do "make" to see if the result is the same as with the old product
- do some changes to the configuration
- do "make menuconfig" -> Kernel/Library/Defaults Selection -> [*] Update Default Vendor Settings
- This writes your changes to the Kernel and User settings into the config.linux-2.6.x and config.vendor-2.6.x fiiles in your product directory. (Including the product selection made and an Environment Variable representing your product)
