    You should try using the search feature of the forum. Search for "global pointer". There is a lot of information on this topic.

    In any case, the -G0 (that's zero) compiler flag should prevent data from being linked into .sdata and/or .sbss.

    Oh,I change the memory size to 40K,the problem is solved.

    But,the new problem is coming.

    when I run as niosII-Hardware,the message is as following:

    Using cable \"USB-Blaster [USB-0]\", device 1, instance 0x00

    Pausing target processor: not responding.

    Resetting and trying again: FAILED

    Leaving target processor paused

    My code is so simple,as following:# include <stdio.h>

    int main()

    {

    printf(\"Hello from Nios II!\\n\");

    return 0;

    }

    Why?Could you help?
