It looks like your memory isn't working. To confirm this, run a memory test on the external ram. You've covered up the addresses. Make sure they are correct.

Hi Galfonz,

Thanks for your reply. One thing I notice that in QSYS, the external RAM Chip present in the BeMicro board is not being shown. I'm attaching a screenshot of that.

Thanks,
