--- Quote Start --- I am using Altera DevKit with SOCEDS 14.0. The system boots from QSPI where 2 preloader images Is there way to force load from specified image? --- Quote End --- Hi. From a power on reset the code will always attempt to load image 0. However there is a HW register in the system manager that allows a subsequent warm boot to choose any of the images to boot from. - Altera_Forum

Hi
So my understanding is Boot 1st preloader from address 0, config hw register to set address of 2nd preloader, do warm reset. Is it correct? Is the register name ALT_SYSMGR_ROMHW? - Altera_Forum
