    Hello neo,

    You can download the Evaluation Version from Altera or you can buy the Nios II license from an Altera distributor.

    Be careful here.

    I pruchased a Cyclone eval board and got Quartus II 3.? and NIOS I

    Then in august I got an update Q II 4.0 and NIOS II 1.0 but an evaluation only version

    I then downloaded the NIOS II 1.0 full version from the web.

    I ended up with NIOS II 1.0 but NO MicroC RTOS support. And perhaps I'm missing other stuf

    I evevtually got a CD from the factory. NIOS II Ver 1.0 and it had the MicroC RTOS.

    hello jdkirby,

    it?s the same behaviour with the stand-alone lwip from microtronix. the sp 1 for nios ii should be installed after adding uclinux (or stand-alone lwip) to your system.

    1. uninstall your nios ii 1.0.1

    2. install nios ii 1.0

    3. install uclinux

    4. install sp 1 for nios 1.0

    bye,

    That makes sense.

    Upgrades and patches were available when I first installed on this computer and I didn't bother to RTFM. Foolish mortal!

    This is the error you get installing Nios II SP1 if you do it Leslie's way:

    The directory:

    c:\altera\kits\nios2

    Does not contain the expected Nios II installation(found 1.01).

    Please select a directory with an installation of Nios II 1.0 to continue.

    I assume I will have to uninstall and reinstall Nios II and uClinux at some point.
