Create your own Remote System update Flash files Using a Script

If you want to take your own .SOF and .ELF files and create .FLASH files so you can remotely download them to the NEEK then:

1) Download the flash conversion script eek_rc.sh
2) Launch a Nios II Command Shell (Start -> Programs -> Altera -> Nios II <version> EDS -> Nios II Command Shell)
3) Copy your hardware image (.SOF) and software image (.ELF) to the directory where you downloaded the eek_rc.sh script
4) From within the Nios II Command Shell, navigate to location of the script and the .ELF and .SOF and type

./eek_rc.sh <your_sw_app.elf> <your_hw.sof>
