When it comes to external memories to store configuration data, we have the following options:
1. EPCS.
2. EPCQ.
3. CFI Flash.
4. Quad SPI.
5. NAND Flash.
If I have a design containing NIOS, how would I put the HW (that comes from .sof) + SW (that comes from .elf) images into a single image to program any of these flash memories? What steps are needed? Are the steps the same for them?
