Honored ContributorI actually get the same (Unrecognized EPCS device ID: -1) using the devkit nios board? I did that mk_target_board thing again,etc - but this time bound it to the devkit ref design..... is it likely my tools are screwed up here?
also, the message : Input file empty--no data to program into flash. Exiting. seems odd? or is that simply talking about the external AMD flash having nothing to program with (which is fine) Anyways,my console gives me this.... make: Entering directory `/cygdrive/f/projects/devkit/full_featured/software/devkit_standalone_test/Release' nios2-flash-programmer --input=ext_flash.flash --sof=`F:/altera/quartus41/sopc_builder/bin/find_sopc_component_dir dev_kit_board_test`/system/dev_kit_board_test.sof --device=1 --base=0x00800000 31-Jan-2005 13:50:00 - (INFO) nios2-flash-programmer: Input file empty--no data to program into flash.
