Hi, the Nios II Linux Distribution works with the standard_32 projects for each of the Altera Dev Boards. The only difference between their standard_32 and the time limited sof that we provide is the compact flash device.

So, try the standard_32 as a start point. BTW, goon is absolutely correct, don't forget to remove the ATA/IDE stuff from the kernel config before trying to build a kernel for a standard_32 project.

See the reference guide for more information.
