16 years agoProgramming the NiosII with command line
Hi,
I am trying to get familiar with Nios II cyclone III, and trying to program the Nios II with hello_world example comes with the NEEK. However, it is not succeed. Here is my steps. 1. run the ./create-this-app 2. nios2-configure-sof <locate the file, which actually is the standard .sof file> 3. in other terminal, run nios2-terminal 4. in the original terminal, run "nios2-download -g hello_world.elf" The following is the error message I get. Using cable "USB-Blaster [USB 3-1.1]", device 1, instance 0x00 Processor is already paused Reading System ID at address 0x021001C3: ID value was not verified: value was not specified Timestamp value was not verified: value was not specified Initializing CPU cache (if present) OK Downloaded 74KB in 0.6s (123.3KB/s) Verifying 02100020 ( 0%) Verify failed between address 0x2100020 and 0x21001C3 Leaving target processor paused Since I am a newbie in this, I hope somebody can help and explain. Appreciate in advance.3 Replies

for all of the development kits, its a good idea to compile with whatever version the kit installer was released for, or else you may have to do some porting to get the project to compile in newer software
it looks like the NEEK kit was updated for 9.1, take a look at the bottom of the kit page: http://www.altera.com/products/devkits/altera/kit-cyc3-embedded.html - Altera_Forum

--- Quote Start --- I fixed it. Thanks I used the example from NEEK version8.0 and run it with a version9.1. And that is the problem. I fixed it to run the example under version 8.0 --- Quote End --- Help! I have exactly the same problem. Do you mean you used NEEK files that were generated only for Quartus version 8.0? I'm building my project with Quartus 9.1, all the VHD codes and C code are generated by it but I'm using a Cyclone III board version7.2. Do you think it could be the problem? - Altera_Forum
