A step-by-step walkthrough of turning an FPGA hardware design into a running embedded system using Xilinx EDK. Covers compiling the hardware design into a .bit bitstream, generating software libraries and board support packages from .mhs and .mss files, and building MicroBlaze applications with GCC. Notes that the default boot location is 0x0 and that applications not placed there require explicit software-controlled execution transfer.
