Problems building the FPGA image

Greetings,

I'm having trouble building the FPGA image according to the instructions on the wiki.

First of all, to actually get to the NIOS II command shell I ran:

Code: Select all

perl nios2_command_shell.pl

in /altera/14.0/nios2eds/bin/launcher/, since running

Code: Select all

./nios2_command_shell

in the /altera/14.0/nios2eds directory only displays a message

Code: Select all

Altera Nios2 Command Shell [GCC 4]

Version 14.0, Build 200
In the NIOS II command shell I navigate to /bladeRF/hdl/quartus/ and execute

Code: Select all

./build_bladerf.sh -r hosted -s 40
which results in a ton of errors and the build failing altogether. I can post them here if needed, I just first want to make sure if there's anything I did wrong in the build process.

Thanks.

Based upon some comments on IRC, I don't believe that the Quartus 14.0 toolset is supported yet. The firmware currently being built using 13.1. There is a development branch dev-quartus14 but it's just that ... a development branch.

Thanks, I've downloaded 13.1 but the installer isn't working >.< On to 13.0sp1 now...
