This has been replaced with new getting started pages linked from the main wiki page. The updated DIY Linux flow is now covered on the Open Source Linux page. |
With the revamp of the Xilinx we encourage you to use the new pages that have all the same features as the old Getting Started page. Much of the same information is available, but it is reorganized in way to make it easier to navigate.
