Hey all, 

I am working with a host-based file system. I accidently didn't put a JTAG UART for the processor but the code was executed and it read the file !!! 

 

How could this happen ? Doesn't the processor need a JTAG UART for file opening and communication with the host processor ?

hostfs is implemented using GDB, which uses the OCI core, not jtag_uart.

Hi 

I record a tutorial on how to mount text file using NIOS II Processor and hostfs feature which enables us to mount files (such as text file) and perform read and write operation on that file
