Garbage at reset

Guys, for long time I'm experiencing an interresting behavior of NIOS, but now I said enough is enough, I have to report, perhaps some of you has some solution and tell me what I'm doing wrong. The case is simple, here is a pseudo code like something:

void main()

{

printf("start\n");

subroutine calls, etc.

printf("done'n");

while (1) ()

}

When I hit run as NIOS HW in NOIS IDE or in ECLIPSE, first time runs fine, but if I hit couple of times the reset button, what is tied to NIOS RESETn pin, I get this output on the console:

start

done

e

start

done

ne

start

done

one

start

done

done

start

done

Sometimes I get more garbage. Another problem is (what I suppose being tied to this one above) I realized that if I have bunch of IPs (eg. VIP stuffs) in my NIOS, the reset does not do full reset, or so. If there are many IPs the reset does not work. I have to hit again the "run as NIOS hw", then works.

Does anyone of you have some useful hint to these problems?
