    It's probably easiest to just do this from the flash programmer as well. On the flash programmer configuration page in the IDE, tick the "Program a file into flash memory" box. Then fill in the fie name, memory and offset.

    Start the Nios II IDE. From the Main Menu select Tools -> Flash Programmer, if you need help Select Help -> Help Contents expand the Nios II IDE Help and under Reference you will find Flash Programmer, this should get you started.
