Altera has already published the 9.1 SP1 (for both Quartus and NIOS) which contain this patch and thus fixes the EPCS problem.

Are you sure the Nios II 91SP1 Flash Program work normally?

However, I download Nios ii 91SP1, install it. Neither the Nios II IDE or Nios II SBT, after using Flash programmer to download programming file into EPCS, it can not boot normally as the 91 did. I am so gloomy about the 91 and 91SP1.

There is a good idea to download programing file into EPCS via JTAG in Quartus II. In QII, file->Convert Programming Files.., Convert sof into jjc, then it works.

Thank you all the same.
