Where does .elf file get saved on my hardware (downloading elf process failed)?

Hi all,

I have been trying to load "hello world small" onto my own design. But it keeps giving me "downloading elf process failed". So i am wondering where does elf file got saved on my design? My design right now only has a on-chip memory, would that be a problem?

very appreciated for the help

Thanks,

Leon.

    realized that elf is saved in EEPROM (EPCS flash component from Qsys library), i am now trying to hook it up and see if it solves my problem.
