    Open up a Nios II SDK Shell and give the command: "umount /usr/lib" and after that try again.

    This fixed the problem for me.

    This problem has been encountered before and if the trick above does not help you, you can check out the answers I got when I asked about this in the General discussions.

    (Search general discussions for "Problem configuring kernel" and make sure you include posts older than 30 days too)

    Hello everyone,

    I have a problem similarly to Sarah problem.

    In particularly, during the building of the project, I’ve received the error message:

    Kind Status Priority Description Resource In Folder Location

    Error *** output directory "/cygdrive/d/altera/kits/nios2/bin/eclipse/workspace/kernel_1s10/build" does not exist. Stop.[Makefile] kernel_1s10 line 92

    Is it possible that the problems depend on that I have installed Quartus on D disk?

    Moreover, the dos window is not as showed in the “microtronix nios II quick starting guide” during the Kernel configuration.

    I’ve tried to write “umount: /usr/lib” in the niosII sdk shell but the message is “umount: /usr/lib: No such file on directory” although I can the directrory “ ls /usr/lib”.

    Have I to reinstall the quartus in the “c:\altera\quartus41 directory”?

    Have I to copy the “"D:\altera\kits\nios2\” in another directory?

    Can someone help me?

    Thank you.

    Hi, I'll attempt to re-create the problem and get back to you regarding this issue. Give me a day or so to setup a system here.

    Damn, I'm really sorry, I haven't been able to get around to setting up the environment here to help you out.

    I'll see if I can get a response out today sometime.

    My apologies.

    I've reinstalled the quartusII , niosII and mictotonix niosII in C disk.

    Now it works correctly.

    Thank you
