There's interest in getting Microwatt going on the NiteFury/LiteFury boards. Other than the usual constraint and top level files, Luke points out the lack of a UART adds another challenge.

According to the sqrl_acron.py file in LiteX;

# The Acorn (CLE-101, CLE-215(+)) are cryptocurrency mining accelerator cards from SQRL that can be
# repurposed as generic FPGA PCIe development boards:
# - http://www.squirrelsresearch.com/acorn-cle-101
# - http://www.squirrelsresearch.com/acorn-cle-215-plus
# The 101 variant is eguivalent to the LiteFury and 215 variant equivalent to the NiteFury from
# RHSResearchLLC that are documented at: https://github.com/RHSResearchLLC/NiteFury-and-LiteFury.

LiteX also has a way to provide a UART over the PCIe bus (and also updating the bitstream).

Some random links;
