DE0 Nano - Problem using the provided examples

Is the console not the best location to run a distributed demonstration batch file? Such as...

DE0-nano-1.0.5\Demonstration\DE0_Nano_SOPC_DEMO\demo_batch\test.bat

i found nios2-download and nios2-terminal in c:\altera\11.0sp1\nios2eds\bin and added it to path environmental variable. It now gets further along, but with different error messages....

cygdrive/c/altera/11.0sp1/nios2eds/bin/nios2-download: line 596: nios2-elf-objcopy: command not found

DE0_Nano.elf.srec: Unable to open input file

rm: cannot remove 'DE0_Nano.elf.srec': No such file or directory

nios2-terminal: connected to hardware target using JTAG UART on cable

nios2-terminal: "USB-Blaster [USB-0]", device 1, instance 0

nios2-terminal: (Use the IDE stop button or Ctrl-C to terminate)

Searched and found nios2-elf-objcopy.exe

added c:\altera\11.0sp1\nios2eds\bin\gnu\h-i686-mingw32\bin

to path, re-opened cmd console, confirmed path, and ran test.bat

Now it seems like it is working.

At some point I will learn more about Nios terminal, for now just want to make sure all the demos are running as a stable base to start with.

Sure wish at least the demos would work straight out of the box.

test_bashrc contains the following:

# file: nios2_sdk_shell_bashrc# # 2004.03.15 dvb# # +------------------------------------------------# | This is the Nios II Kit SDK Shell rc file# |# | It calls the standard SOPC Builder rc file, first, and# | then patches a few things up to do with replicated# | scripts and revisions, so that the ones provided# | with Nios II take precedence.# |
