anybody ported Jrunner to NIOS

[ron proveniers]

On an embedded test-platform we have to configure a remote Altera Cyclone
device via its JTAG chain.
Our test-platform also has an Altera Cyclone fpga with a NIOS I SOC.
We like to program the remote Cyclone via its JTAG.
Right now we think the best method is to port the Altera Jrunner software to
the NIOS I.

Questions:
1- has anybody done this before (the NIOS port)?
2-what is the max.configuration time if using a .rbf from about 185KB??
3-any other method suggested???

thanks
