Hi,
Not posted here for a very long time due to family problems.
Anyway dusted off my A1200, fitted a Chinnon(sp?) floppy, got the PCMCIA flash working, installed WB3.1 and have WHDload working fine. Next comes the CF to IDE HD 
Then I spotted the Minimig threads popping up on here. I'm an electronics engineer and have done a lot of prototyping especially with SMT. I'm inclined to get one of the boards and see how long it takes to do. It would take a long time and the hardest part would be the gate array. It's not impossible though by any means.
How are you attempting to programme the FPGA?
Spartan 3 FPGA is SRAM based.
On power up, the PIC microcontroller reads a file with the FPGA configuration data from a MMC Flash memory card in order to serially the load FPGA. Then, the PIC microcontroller loads the kickstart image into the kickstart ram area and acts as an Amiga floppy emulator.
