Remote update controller issue

Hi everyone, I'm using the remote update controller (cyclone III) on my Cyclone IV GX dev board with a EPCS128 flash memory. I wish to have two firmwares in my EPCS (factory and application)....

If the bootloader does not work for Cyclone IV GX it may be the valdation test fail on the Device ID in the epcs configuration data (in boot_loader_epcs_bits_sii_siii_ciii.S) . You may include the ID for Cyclone IV GX or you may skip the test as it is not nescessary. It is a simple code to understand.

I do not know were to obtain the Device ID, but you may get it from the flash file. This bootloader does however work for Cyclone IV (device ID 0xf7).

Thanks for your reply!

I tried to skip ID test, but it changes nothing.

Attached is my file.

Can I write my Image at address 0x00600000?

I'm using now Quartus v12.sp1, but use boot loader sources file from v11.1.

Can this create problem?

Boot loader sources file from v12.sp1 are different. How must I to modify it?
