Parallel Flash Loader VS JTAG Stratix IV

Is there a way to get the Fast Passive Parallel flash loader to cooperate with JTAG programming? I have: - a CPLD with the PFL installed, it works, and loads the FPGA - JTAG to the FPGA....

Solved - yes it was a bug in my design.

I had a signal contention issue in the FPGA design, and my on board power monitor circuit was resetting the board when the FPGA finished loading, causing it to reboot and reload from NOR flash.

Fixed that, and now both JTAG and the PFL work together nicely.
