Hi Turhan,

Thanks for the reply. I'm working with a custom board which has nios2, 64MB RAM and a couple of other peripherals. I used "sopc-create-header-files" command to create the header files specific to the board and I have added a custom configuration for the same. The memory mappings seem to be OK.

Strangely the same configuration worked when I was using Quartus-9.2. But after I updated the tools and the project to Quartus 11.0, I'm having the above problem. I also tried running a hello world program on nios2 without mmu and even that gave the same error. All these configurations worked fine with older version(9.2) of the tools. My guess is the program is going to debug mode after download and I'm not sure how to change this. Also not sure if this is due to the automatic migration of project which I did from Quartus 9.2 to Quartus 11.0. I will try to create a new project in latest version and will check if I face the same problem or not. Let me know if you thing something else might be wrong.

Thanks,

Chetan.
