The PLAICE wiki is growing:
http://flash-plaice.wikispaces.com/
We have an experimental multichannel logic analyzer package for the PLAICE now with the JAVA client.
We also have a complete binary Linux demo for the board that uses the MicroBlaze cpu, Ethernet, directional buttons, GPIO, rotary encoder and USB. There is a fully featured shell, small footprint fully featured embedded webserver, GPIO demo, text games, C++ demos and telnet application.
We will start on the probes and adapters in the next few weeks.
We should be able to port Flashrom and begin working on code for the emulator soon.
Help from anyone is very welcome for application development.

Where is the xmd utility found? What's the PC interface to the eval board?

It's in Xilinx Platform Studio. The debug interface on MicroBlaze is designed to work with the Xilinx Microprocessor Debug Module (MDM) IP core. The MDM is controlled by the Xilinx Microprocessor Debugger (XMD) through the JTAG port of the FPGA.
What's the PC interface to the eval board?
The Xilinx board has USB, serial and Ethernet. The board will interface to the target mainboard via an adapter cable and plug/socket for the Flash BIOS device.

Hi
Where is the xmd utility found?
The webpack is available for free (as in beer) after registration at xilinx: http://www.xilinx.com/webpack/index.htm
It is a dumbed down version which only works with the smaller boards. But the board used with PLAICE is one of these.
What's the PC interface to the eval board?
I think it's USB (with a horrible blob driver from xilinx).
