I don't know how to find the page I referenced anymore. This link explains how to do it though. https://www.howtogeek.com/426749/how-to-access-your-linux-wsl-files-in-windows-10/ Inside WSL if you execute the command "explorer.exe ." it will open explorer in the current directory which is your WSL directory. Make sure you don't leave out the space and the period. From there all you have to do is use the up arrow in the top left corner of the explorer window to reach the root directory and then you can enter the /etc directory. Once there if you right click in the window you can create a new file. name it "wsl.conf" and follow the rest of the instructions above. Re: dos2unix fails to change permissions when creating project from template @NickWilliams solution worked for me. I followed the instructions on https://ajeet.dev/how-to-use-windows-subsystem-for-linux/ to create the wsl.conf file. The exact steps I took were: From within Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (which I already had installed for Windows Subsystem for Linux) I executed the command explorer.exe . In the explorer window that opened I went up 2 directories to Ubuntu-18.04 Next I opened the etc directory and created a new file titled "wsl.conf" Next I opened this with a text editor and edited it to say [automount] options = "metadata" as per @NickWilliams suggestion. I saved this file, then restarted my computer. After restart I reopened my project in quartus, used the tools menu to open "Nios II Software Build Tools for Eclipse" Then following the instructions in the lab tutorial Eclipse was finally able to create my project without errors. Re: dos2unix fails to change permissions when creating project from template It might also be important to know that I am using Quartus Prime Lite v20.1.0 Build 711, and it's installed in C:\intelFPGA_lite\20.1 I also followed the instructions here https://www.intel.com/content/altera-www/global/en_us/index/support/support-resources/knowledge-base/tools/2019/why-does-the-nios--ii-not-installed-after-full-installation-of-t.html to install eclipse in the nios2eds/bin directory dos2unix fails to change permissions when creating project from template Hello, I have searched all over for an answer to my problem, and while I've found similar questions none of the answers have worked. I have followed the instructions in "The Nios II Embedded "Hello World" Lab: For the DE10-LiteDevelopment Kit" successfully up to the point where you create a new project in Nios II - Eclipse. When I fill in the wizard and press Finish I get an error popup that says Failed to execute: wsl dos2unix create-this-bsp; ./create-this-bsp --cpu-name cpu --no-make I also see the following message printed in the eclipse console window: dos2unix: Failed to change the permissions of temporary output file ./d2utmpfnPN2u: Operation not permitted I've tried launching eclipse from the Nios II command shell in several ways. Running Nios II Command Shell.bat and executing ./eclipse-nios2.exe Running Nios II Command Shell.bat and executing sudo ./eclipse-nios2.exe Running Nios II Command Shell.bat as Administrator and executing ./eclipse-nios2.exe Running Nios II Command Shell.bat as Administrator and executing sudo ./eclipse-nios2.exe I tried playing around with using elevated command shell and elevated eclipse-nios2 because of the permissions message as well as an answer that said to launch eclipse from the Nios II Command Shell. https://www.intel.com/content/altera-www/global/en_us/index/support/support-resources/knowledge-base/embedded/2019/error--failed-to-execute--wsl---create-this-bsp-no-make.html I've also made sure to apt install wsl, dos2unix, and make.
