My problem is in section 3.2 of the tutorial, "Compiling and loading the program." When I try to compile, I see the following in the info window:
Compiling source files...
nios2-elf-as --gstabs -I C:/altera/91sp2/nios2eds/components/altera_nios2/sdk/inc -I H:/private/FPGA/monitor_tutorial H:/private/FPGA/monitor_tutorial/getting_started.s -o H:/private/FPGA/monitor_tutorial/getting_started.s.o

nios2-elf-ld: H:/private/FPGA/monitor_tutorial/getting_started.s.o: No such file: No such file or directory
Compilation stopped.
It appears that the nios2-elf-as command, which I assume starts the assembler, does not generate the .s.o file. I've searched throughout the hard drive and cannot find it anywhere else, either.
Any ideas what is going on?
