All you should have to do is open a shell window and execute: $ nios2-download -g file.elf You might also want to make sure the sections are mapped to meaningful memory regions. You can use objdump for this: $ nios2-elf-objdump -h file.elf If everything looks good, but you're still having problems, you might want to use nios2-console -- this will let you load, peek, poke, whatever.
