Multiple Nios in Max 10

The design has two Nios processors and hence two Hex files for the processors code. How do you merge the two Hex files and the SOF into a POF. The tools only seem to allow one hex file! ​

Hi,

There are already some reference designs available to run dual boot on MAX 10. Please check the followings:

​ALso, I am not looking for dual boot- I am looking at dual processors!! The only one that looks close is the dual-core-nios-ii-project-with-protected-memory-regions. I looked at the manual for this and it does not show how to make the final programming image with the two hex files. The just program the FPGA with the base fpga image and then run the debugger. There is no mention of making the POF file with the two elf/hex files.
