I don't know if it would help but I faced the same problem.

I converted my .elf program to .hex format using elf2hex and used this file as initial memory content for my onchip_memory. I recompiled my design to recreate the .sof. When I downloaded this new file on my kit the program run normally, and was possible to use nios2-download and nios2-terminal without those annoying messages.

That is my set up:

  • Quartus II Web Edition (v11.1 sp2)

  • Development Kit: DE0-Nano Terasic

  • OS: Arch Linux (x86_64)

I hope it's helpfull
