ep 9, 2006 3:41:02 PM - (??) nios2-flash-programmer: Error opening target hardw 

are 

the error is that as follow: what's mean? 

 

In order to program flash, you must first create a purpose-built 

flash-programming design (i.e. FPGA configuration) and associate it with 

your particular board. The Nios development kit is delivered with purpose-bui 

lt 

flash-programming designs pre-built for several development boards. If you wi 

sh 

to program flash on your own board, you must first create a flash-programming 

design. 

 

The process of creating a flash-programming design for your board is mostly 

automated. From a bash-shell, execute this script: 

 

mk_target_board --help 

 

The help-message includes references to other documentation on programming 

flash and targeting Nios systems to custom board designs. 

- exiting.

Use >=5.1 versions of both Quartus II and the Nios II tools. Prior to this version, the flash programmer was more of a pain to use.
