Hi, jberman!

To read your files from ext. Flash memory for NIOS II 9.1:

BSP Editor -> Software packages -> activate altera_ro_zipfs.

-ro_zipfs_base - base of your Flash memory.

I haven't found how to create "zip file" with my original files to load it to Flash memory .

Write this "zip file" to Flash using Flash Programmer.

And use

fp = fopen ("/mnt/rozipfs/file1.txt", "r"); and so on

If you know how to create "zip file", to load it to Flash memory, share with me.

Manual doesn't tell it clearly.
