Hi, Johnson

Can you check if the reset vector offset is larger than the FPGA image size ?

For instance, if the size of the FPGA image is estimated to be less than 0x01E00000, you can set the Nios II Reset Vector offset to 0x01E00000 in Qsys, which is also the start of the boot copier.

Also make sure that All settings in Settings.Advanced.hal.linker in BSP editor are left unchecked.

Thanks.

Eric
