    To help new users get started we have now made available, free of charge, a disk image and Verilog bitstream files specifically to run the Project Oberon Workstation on the Pepino LX9 FPGA development board 'out-of-the-box'.

    This release is based on the very latest Oberon sources (July 2018) and Verilog sources (Jun 2018) as described in An Update of the RISC5 Implementation, by Niklaus Wirth 15.6.2018:
