FERMI at ELETTRA is a project aims at the construction of a single-pass user facility for the spectral range from 100 nm to 10 nm. Starting point is the existing 1.2 GeV, 3-GHz linac. Downstream of the linac two undulator beamlines will serve the wavelength range from 100 nm to 40 nm, and 40 nm to 10 nm, respectively. The former beamline will be based on a single-stage HGHG scheme while for the latter a double stage HGHG scheme is foreseen. This paper discusses results from start-to-end simulations for the former beamline, including the option of HGHG. Care has been taken to include realistic models for the injector, accelerating structures, and undulator beamline.
