hi,

the .flash-file is a ascii-hex file. one byte is coded in more bytes....

Thank you

i have read the data in the flash, the actual playload is less than 1.4M bytes, so if i use a flash with the size of 2M, it will work with no problem when i use: nios2-flash-programmer --base=0 ext_flash.flash, with the 3.5M bytes ext_flash.flash file ?
