AlphaMax NeTV2 compatibility about pcileech-fpga

Yes, the NeTV2 will be usable for this - but it will require a bit of work.

The FPGA is the same as on the already supported PCIeScreamer and AC701 boards - Artix7.

However the NeTV2 is a bit limited in the ways the "attacker" computer may communicate with it. The HDMI isn't really suitable for this (even though I guess it should be possible in theory). The micro-USB looks like it's UART only - i.e. slow. Remaining is the 100MBit Ethernet. This would give us around 10MB/s over the network. Since there is some overhead I guess we would realistically be looking at dump speeds around 8MB/s unless a compression is added as well.

So yes, it would be possible, very useful, but the speeds wouldn't be great. There will be some work involved. I may look into it myself, but I have so much other things to do chances are that it will take a long time. My things are open source so if you'd be interested to help out I would be happy to accept a PR.

My idea was to offload much of the tasks directly to the NeTV2 itself, rather than supporting full memory dumps. Either way, it seems an interesting hardware addition; I may play with it. Thanks!

Support Added for NeTV2.

Awesome, and thanks; I'll be playing with this next week, for sure!
