I prepared the tools and includes from buildroot. You can use it to compile kernel and apps.
You don't have to download and build buildroot. (but you should try it later, when you got more experiences) These are the binary tools and rootfs. http://hungryhippo.myweb.hinet.net/nios2gcc.tar.bz2 (http://hungryhippo.myweb.hinet.net/nios2gcc.tar.bz2) http://hungryhippo.myweb.hinet.net/nios2rootfs.tar.bz2 (http://hungryhippo.myweb.hinet.net/nios2rootfs.tar.bz2) or find them on Jhdar's site, (thanks a lot to his help) http://via.fps-tech.org/snapshots/nios2/ (http://via.fps-tech.org/snapshots/nios2/) su - # your root passwd tar jxf nios2gcc.tar.bz2 -C / exit cd ~ tar jxf nios2rootfs.tar.bz2 The cross gcc tools will be in /opt/nios dir. The rootfs with busybox will be in ~/rootfs and ~/download/rootfs_list . Then setup the PATH for the cross gcc, PATH=$PATH:/opt/nios2/bin Try out, nios2-linux-uclibc-gcc -v Then try build kernel and apps as in the buildroot guide.
