<p>Hi Steve,</p>
<p>as nearly 18 years passed nobody seems courageous to reply. If I
recall correctly I only powered the Penelope on the Atlas board
and used an Altera USB blaster via the JTAG connector to 'fill'
the firmware into the FPGA memory. Never an explosion happend and
all worked fine, hi.</p>
<p>Good luck and success!</p>
