my code won't execute after a CPU reset

In my case the ROM contains a separately compiled custom reset code that was overwritten by the debugger (EDS 9.1sp2) when downloading the program to the target (either for a Run or Debug session). Subsequently, the board did not boot anymore when the reset button was pressed.

Because I have pulled out half of my hair before I found out how to avoid it, I post here the steps to follow :

- right-click on your bsp project and select "Nios II/BSP Editor..."

- in tag Settings, select "Settings/Advanced/hal/linker"

- uncheck "allow_code_at_reset" and "enable_alt_load"
