well I belive that
and I do know it works, but there seems to be only one way to the goal,
namly montavista
trying the full linux on virtex by using EDK and opensource linux kernel
seems to be a real
pain, and yes I have studied all the info about this on the web, all
references go back to
montavista, or V2PDK.
So maybe you know where to get HOWTO
EDK+opensource ppc-linux, all done in one day?
I know that Denx did a lot of work for V2Pro ppc linux, but as Xilinx did
not talk the them then they got really pissed off and stopped their efforts
for the Virtex PPC linux support. And montavista is something very strange
type of entity, can not understand what they are selling or offering or what
it costs :(

I want to learn more about this!
look at uclinux
uclinux on microblaze
http://www.itee.uq.edu.au/~jwilliams/mblaze-uclinux
uclinux for nios2

http://linuxdevices.com/news/NS9386138954.html
Note I don't know if that is the correct link for Nios as have only used
uclinux on microblaze.
Can also run full linux on v2pro and v4FX with ppc hard cores.

but well I belive that
and I do know it works, but there seems to be only one way to the goal,

I haven't tried denix myself but believe it can be made to run.
Download their eldk. Could try asking on the uclinux microblaze list.
A lot of the guys there know a lot lot more than me on this.
Have not been doing much with fpgas / edk lately
working on TI DM642 based video systems.
And preparing to work on cradle mdsp based systems.

I've already used these helpful references to get a Linux kernel running on
the PowerPC405 on the Digilent XUP-V2Pro board. I'm new to ucLinux but it
doesn't appear to be much more complicated than the ucLinux steps.

Quoting Schunke Jan-Hendrik :
Hi Aurash, hi John,
We are working with the PPC on virtex2p. You do not need Monta Vista
Linux.
All you need is denx eldk: http://www.denx.de/twiki/bin/view/DULG/ELDK
And the penguin ppc linux distribution:
http://www.penguinppc.org/kernel/#developers
(we are using the 2.4 Kernel)
To get started: http://www.klingauf.de/v2p/index.phtml might be helpful.
On the other hand we are also using uClinux on spartan3.
It is really a question of what hardware you have and what you want to do
;-)
Have Fun

The fully opensource Linux path on the Xilinx PowerPC 405 works just
fine.
For the kernel, the UIUC page listed below is excellent. It discusses
how to to use Dan Kegel's crosstool and the linux kernel from
penguinppc.org.
For the root filesystem, Yellow Dog Linux root filesystem works well.
More adventurous folks than I have reported success with a Red Hat
powerpc root filesystem but I still need to try that out myself.
Starting from EDK Base System Builder all the way through to running
sytem takes about four hours mostly in downloading all the source
required.

We have an Avnet Virtex-II Pro board that came with the Denx Linux
distribution. We have been able to use that distribution with out
problems. They used their own boot manager called Avmon. We have
replaced it with UBOOT loading Linux from a Mini-SD card.
I emailed Montavista and asked them to have someone from technical
sales call me. Someone did call me, but all I could get out of them
was how much it cost. I never did get a clear picture of what they
provided. Is there anyone here that has used Montavista that could
give us some feedback on the support that you received?
