Honored Contributorupload kernel problem
System: Win2000, quartus5.1, nios5.1, Linux dist. 1.4, Cyclone Dev. Kit
I got the following message whilst uploading kernel (thru USB-blaster): "------------------------------------------------ Microtronix Linux Extensions Version 1.4, Built June 20, 2005 ------------------------------------------------ (note: only Altera-provided flash components will work, since install.ptf was not found. This will probably be fine for you.) The flash programmer has been updated. Please see the documentation for instructions on how to update your command line. The flash programmer has been updated. Please see the documentation for instructions on how to update your command line. usage: nios2-flash-programmer [-h/--help] [-c/--cable <cable name>] [-d/--device <device index>] [-i/--instance <instance>] [-s/--sidp <address>] [-I/--id <id>] [-t/--timestamp <timestamp>] -b/--base <address> [-e/--epcs] <action> [-g/--go] .... The flash programmer supports all CFI flashes which use the AMD programming algorithm (CFI algorithm 2) or the Intel algorithm (1 or 3)." Any one knows how to fix it? Regards, Kwok Wong5 Replies

You have to program with the programmer in the shell. Regards Thomas

The error message suggested that we need to modify the program script, because the programmer has been updated with nios2 5.1. However, I do NOT know what options (address, etc) I should provide to the programmer tool. Usually this is done by the Microtronix plugin upload script. Unfortunely that script does not show the given command on the console. For the time being I switch back to quartus5.0 and nios 5.0 and everything works as described in the User Guide.
