Frequent ContributorHi, Matthew
Can you follow below to re-install again:
1. install WSL for windows
i. https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/programmable/us/en/pdfs/literature/hb/nios2/n2sw_nii5v2gen2.pdf (chapter 2.1)
Note: Windows 10 build version 16215.0 or higher is the recommended operating system version.
ii. After installation has successfully completed, launch Ubuntu 18.04.
iii. Install additional distro packages required for Nios II EDS using the following commands:
a. sudo apt-get update
b. sudo apt install wsl
c. sudo apt install dos2unix

New ContributorThat seemed to get it working. I have some follow up questions.
- If I were looking for the "Nios II Software Developer Handbook" pdf and didn't have a direct link to it how would I find it on your site? What menus do I have to traverse to find useful documents like that for FPGA/Nios Development? I'm having a lot of trouble searching Intel's site for anything related to FPGAs.
- Does Intel plan on cleaning up the Quartus prime installer in the future to make it less complicated to install everything at the same time (i.e. Quartus prime + Eclipse)?
- Could you let the web developers for Intel know that it's extremely difficult to download Quartus prime directly from Intel? Every download button I clicked seemed to be dead and wouldn't download. Version 20.1 is the only one I was able to get downloaded and I had to click the download button many times before it would do anything. I verified that my browser was not waiting for Intel's site to load during this so there's something wrong with the site's script.
Here's a link to the web location that seems to be broken. The download options are broken for every version as far as I can tell.
New ContributorI have Eclipse working, but whenever I try an example project and try to build it I get an error for Make.
This is the line in the makefile that the compiler flags:
$(call adjust-path,$(ELF)) : $(APP_OBJS) $(LINKER_SCRIPT) $(APP_LDDEPS)
I loaded the SOPC from my project and made a BSP from that. Do you know what might be causing that? Attached is the project files. I'm just following the example project for the DECA development board.
