Yes, you have to build your system hardware on SOPC builder, it will create a ptf file. Then compile the hardware on quartusII to a sof file.

You will have the ptf and sof, they must match. Then you can download the sof to your hardware with quartusII programmer. and use the ptf for your linux kernel hwselect. after you compile the kernel, you can run uClinux on your hardware.

You'd better follow this thread and work on Linux,
