Migrate from a C6713 DSP to C6655 DSP

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CODECOMPOSER, SYSBIOS

Hi

I am about to switch from a C6713 DSP to a C6655 DSP and would like to have some advice about how to go about this.

My current project uses Code composer 5.1 and DSPBIOS version 5.41.11.38, and it is configured using a .TCF file. In the TCF file I setup HWI, SWI, semaphores, tasks and memory sections. 
I use the C6xCSL to setup some EDMA channels and timers. 

I have updated my codecomposer to version 5.4.000091 and have discovered that it no longer uses .TCF fies (I was unable to open the tcf file on my new Windows 8 PC).

Can I continue using DSPBIOS 5.x.x.x or do I need to switch to SYSBIOS 6.x.x.x to be able to use the C6655?

How do I setup DMA on C6655?

How do I set up all the stuff that used to be setup by the TCF file?
