Adding Avalon-MM tristate bridge hangs the system

I have a perfectly working system using onchip RAM/ROM. Now I want to add interface to off-chip SRAM using Avalon-MM TriState Bridge. Problem is when I just add this component in SOPC, the resulting system (after re-creating BSP, recompiling etc.) hangs even when I am not trying to use the off-chip ram. By hangs I mean that my hello_world_small program does not output anything. All the i/f signal for the bridge seems to be OUT type, except the data, which i have left open for the time being. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks.

    Are you sure that your BSP settings don't use the offchip ram for anything? Check all the linker sections, and the settings for stack and heap.
