    I am using MAX 10 board and I think its capacity is really small. my on-chip memory has only 20480 Bytes. so can this cause the problem? I found in the BSP editor that the RAM address is from 0x00008000 to 0x0000efff

    but the RAM address shows in qsys is from 0x00008000 to 0x0000cfff. Does it mean out of range??

    ok. it seems it's the capacity problem. I create the new project with small hello world template and it goes further,

    but stop here
