Hi,

I first use the Quartus II programmer to configure the sof on to the FPGA, and a dialog box with title "OpenCore Plus Status" appear "Time remaining: unlimited". I left it open. Afterward, I use the console to program the flash, "nios2-download -g zImage.initramfs.gz" Here is the error message I got:

Using cable "USB-Blaster [USB-0], device 1, instance 0x00

Pausing target processor: not responding.

Resetting and trying again: FAILED

Leaving target processor paused

I tried with nios2-flash-programmer --base=0x00000000 --erase-all. Same error message.

Thanks in advance if you any idea what I did wrong. Please let me know if you need more info.

Thanks,

Yeung
