Using with archimedes and icesugarpro failed, need help

[janrinze]

The archimedes repository probably does not yet support icesugarpro. I would like to test it to see if it it possible to run the archimedes on the icesugar pro.

Maybe in future even the ULX3S but since DeMISTify has support for icesugar pro I would try that first.

For iceSugarPro I have changed BOARDS=icesugarpro in DeMiSTify/site.mk

below the last part of the output of the make command.

Next186_DeMiSTify fails on

Compiling overrides.c   >#include "c64keys.h"
error 248 in line 5 of "c64keys.c": file 'c64keys.h' not found
    included from file "overrides.c":14

Possibly c64keys.h was not yet committed to the repository. With projects that have many dependencies I usually check them out in a temporary directory and test my build. That way any files that were missing will pop up errors during build.

As you can see I am very interested in DeMiSTify and hope in future to be able to add ULX3S to the list of supported boards. Small steps first to get familiar with the way DeMiSTify works and how to use it.

Thanks for the reports - you're right that I missed a couple of files from the Next186 repo, and I'll add those soon.

The icesugarpro target in DeMiSTify doesnt' work yet - it's completely experimental and I haven't yet succeeded in building a DeMiSTified core using Yosys, GHDL and nextpnr.
