Installing eCOS for Nios II IDE 6.0

The installer fails, saying I _must_ have version 5.1. Yet the text is worded saying I should download the latest version (which I have, it's 6.0). Any plans to adjust the eCOS installatio...

Sorry about this one, folks.

The fact is that there *shouldn't* be any updates in Nios II 6.0 that inherently break eCos or require an update; the installer should not have been imposing that version restriction but it appears that that wasn't the case.

Please try the above workaround until we build/upload an eCos update that installs with Nios II 6.0. Thank you for your collective patience!
