Jon,
I think the Lattice web has at least sporadic issues with the download
there are several people complaining about the downloads not starting,
so I dont it the issue of not being able to uncompress .bz2

The file you download is a tar.bz2, not zip or exe. You need to extract
it with:
tar xjf src.tar.bz2

hm, I guess the LM32_RAM that is included when JTAG debugger is enabled
is direct processor connected block RAM. as I had JTAG configured off
this module was also out, so I only had wishbone block RAMs left in the
system. For the custom instruction support there is anyway an update
needed so I guess the access to direct CPU connected on chip memories
will also be available then.

PS for those who want to play with LatticeMico32 on Xilinx platform I
uploaded the ISE project navigator project that I used for testing, its
rather minimal LM32 system tested to work in Virtex-4, available
@ www.microfpga.com , download area...
