Please provide more details ... how did you download?
What did you observe?

Stephan has indicated that he was successful.

No, currently only the Cyclone development board is
supported. But based on the information I've received, the
Stratix board is very similar ... so adding support should
be fairly straight forward.

Yes ...you can view the Nios sources for uClinux archive at:
http://cvs.uclinux.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/uClinux-2.4.x/arch/niosnommu/

I haven't had a chance to work with uClinux yet ... as I'm
currently working on support for Nios ASMI ... which is only
useful for Cyclone devices. But please do keep me in the loop ...
I'd love to help ... once I find some time :-)
