Honored ContributorHi Dave,
thanks for your answer. Unfortunately, I tried already the 6.1 Nios II EDS Tools that seem not to work as those tools seem to be too new, already. I think it should work with the 4.1 Version because this one is mentioned in our documentation and was reported by Quartus II 6.1 when I imported that old project (a copy of it) into the 6.1 version. So i really think that I need the old tools. But the one thing you mentioned is just interesting. In the script there is a .sof file refferenced. Additionally, if I check the JTAG chain of our hardware, I only see the Cyclone I FPGA, but no flash. So I already thought to myself that the FPGA will be configured as some kind of flash programmer by the nios2-flash-programmer.exe. Then, the flash image will be programmed into the flash device by via the FPGA. This sound pretty much like I program the Cyclone III config device with my .jic file. So, is it possible to do the same thing with the most current nios2-flash-programmer? I have not found a similar "--sof" parameter in the documentation I have at hand for my Nios II tools. Maybe, if it is possible I better create a new programming script with the most recent tools. However, I think I need a little help on that since I usually only do .pof or .jic programming . . .
