Remote Update using EPCS64 with Nios

Hi all. I am hoping somebody can help. I have created a 'factory' image (fpga+nios code) that is stored at offset 0x0 in the EPCS64 device. So, it boots fine. Not to get too long win...

And I succeeded in using the reconfig. Booting directly from the M4K onchip memory, I had no problem, so I suspect the original poster was storing code in the EPCS, and had both FPGA images point to the same address in EPCS to load the NIOS image.

I expect that if you use the EPCS boot loader, you would set a parameter that tells it where to locate the NIOS image, and you must set this parameter differently depending on your image.
