Honored ContributorDS-5 Baremetal:Failed to load image
Hi,
I'm running a baremetal application to write and read a byte of data into the DDR memory. The attached image shows the configuration of the DS-5 debugger being used. The error log is as shown: Stopping running target Altera - Cyclone V SoC (Dual Core) on TCP:localhost on connection Connected to running target Altera - Cyclone V SoC (Dual Core) on TCP:localhost Execution stopped at: S:0x3FF84E5C source /v "D:\Altera\embedded\ds-5\sw\debugger\configdb\Scripts\altera_target_check.py" S:0x3FF84E5C LDR r3,[pc,#188] ; [0x3FF84F20] = 0xFF706FFF No SYSID registers could be found.

No compilation unit matching "C:/Users/Administrator/Documents/DS-5 Workspace/app_test/Debug/test.c" was found Am I missing anything in the configuration? Is there any specific jumper settings? I suspect the problem is initialization of the memory but not completely sure on it. Please advice on this issue. Thanks in advance. I am using a Cyclone V Arrow SocKit with Quartus 14.1 edition. The preloader and uboot were generated through the bsp-editor after the system was generated through Qsys. Best Regards, Nitin.
