After creating of a new BSP, the new problem raised - how to attach this new BSP to the existing application ?

Well ... the another BSP can be attached to application this way:

  1. right-click on the application

  2. then select properties, then under "nios ii application properties"

  3. then go to the "bsp project location"

  4. then specify a new location for bsp

Unfortunately with new BSP (in new BSP I replaced sdram with on-board memory) the problem persisted.

When I try to load application, the following sequence of messages alternates in the console window (please see below the image built with screenshot sequences)

According to this "console sequence", one might think that .elf is successfully downloaded, but CPU failed to reset.

But final Eclipse error message titled "problem occurred" says "download elf process failed".

Moreover, the download progress indicator (at right-bottom corner of the Eclipse tool) advances until about 65% ... and then clears at the moment when the "problem occurred" message appears.

So, there is no any clue, any hint to proceed further ...

Any ideas ?
