    Forwarded on behalf of Pillai, who has been having difficulty posting to
    the OpenRISC mailing list.

    There can be a delay before messages are broadcast on the OpenCores
    mailing lists. I've reposted this for you.

    I see from your company website
    (www.gigilogic.com/services/software/gnu-tools-porting) that you are
    active contributors to the maintenance of the OpenRISC GNU tool chain
    Port. You might like to check with your colleagues involved in this, to
    see if their messages are being lost.

    You should compare this with the memory sizes in the sim.cfg file
    distributed with Linux. I believe the figures you quote are all larger,
    so you should be OK.

    However building the tool chain and Linux takes less than an hour,
    particularly since you have experts in house. They should be able to
    give you exact figures.

    HTH,
