Sorry, the P2 wanted to say, I got confused, P3 (the DB25) I have it busy with the 7i76.
I have asked if the pins are the same to prepare the wire.

On P2, HDR Pin 1 connects to DB25 Pin 1, but the other pins are
not in order because of the way DB25 and HDR26 pins are numbered.
You don't need a special cable however just a flat cable with IDC
connectors (one HDR26 , one DB25) on each end.
(Mesa can supply these)

Ok, I'll wait to do it then with the pins you tell me based on the custom firmware.

Very grateful PCW!!!
I understand that the pinout of the Chinese BB is like the one it has.
I see that in the zip comes a .vhd file, what is it for?
The .bit I imagine is to flash the 5i25 again like I did when I bought it.

Thank you very much, really, how much I want to try it
