Moin,

For me it looks like some problem with the JTAG cable or the USB-Blaster. Maybe the ususal suspects: cable to long, cable not enough shielding, wrong USB-Blaster supplier...

Or something is wrong with your design, e.g. something blocks the avalon bus, when NIOS starts.

I also had sometimes the problem, that the gdb-server didn't terminate correctly, and a second one showed this behaviour. But that was with QII-6.? Software. Don't know if this is still an issue.

Sorry for not being more specific...

cheers,

WK
