Hi,

I don't know why a pof is generated when you are choosing a Cyclone II device. But you can convert the sof to pof in quartus : File-> Convert Programming Files. An other way is to add the string

"set_global_assignment -name USE_CONFIGURATION_DEVICE ON" in your qsf. Then the pof is automatically generated.
