The welcome message is 'uClinux' , but the kernel is a "genuine" linux kernel which is using MMU. So you need the toolchain which supports those.

Please refer

Thank you. It works.

I downloaded compiller from https://sourcery.mentor.com/gnutoolchain/subscription42545

and I use this command to compile my programms: 


nios2-linux-gnu-gcc main.c

I have one more question:

DE2-115 has leds, buttons etc.

Can i control them from linux?
