Hi MFM,

If you're using Nios 5.1 and the 1s40 standard configuration, your flash base address should
be 0000_0000. The best bet is to follow mountain8848's suggestions and review your ptf file.

Check your flash_init() routine in board/altera/common/AMDLV065D.c -- you probably still have
the routine contents commented out -- I believe that's what I suggested you do to get started
on the other board you were using (since you were using a different flash device). Normally,
u-boot will report an error if flash_init() reports zero memory.
