Hi,

In the CD-ROM comes along with DE0-Nano, there is a "demonstration" folder. In side that you can find "myfirst_niosii" folder. It contains all the Quartus Project + Software for LED demo. Just open the project in Quartus, SOPC or Qsys and Nios II IDE or SBT. The example project blinks the LED using the Nios II Processor.

The Example Application uses the On-Chip RAM and the 'C' application just prints "Hello from Nios II" and start incrementing the LEDs.
