The problem is solved:
- Cause: The preloader needs to take into account the pin/mux/hardware configuration of the targer board. The Altera boards differ in so many ways that the preloader can't work on a SoCKit board.
- Solution:
Generate your own preloader from the definitions in the SoCKit_Materials.zip in folder SoCkit/SoCkit_SW_lab_13.0/hps_isw_handoff/soc_system_hps_0/
The zip file is available from
http://www.arrownac.com/solutions/sockit/ under the getting started tab.
To build the preloader you need the bsp-editor from soceds5. Follow the instructions given at several places to build and then make it.
Caveat: When you are using the Quartus tools in the current version (13.0sp1) you will get some compile errors (13.0 works).
If you are using 13.0sp1 you need to regenerate the handoff files with quartus from the SoCkit GHRD at
http://www.rocketboards.org/foswiki/view/projects/sockitghrd.
Hope this helps.

Hi, Stiw
According your explanation, if i using quartus 13.osp1, i need to regenerate the handoff file in folder SoCkit/SoCkit_SW_lab_13.0/hps_isw_handoff/soc_system_hps_0/ ..
but i click into the link you suggested, it don hav too much of step to show how to regenerate it, and izit i need to recompile again the quartus file in SoCKit_Materials.zip( SoCkit_HW_lab)?
If you ever had regenerate the handoff file on quartus 13.0sp1 before, can share the completed project here? I am confusing and stuck at here and dun know how to proceed...Hope u can answer my questions and give me some guidance.
