Quartus Prime Lite does not officially support Debian though...

Download 'Quartus-lite-17.0.2.602-linux.tar', expand tar file and execute setup.sh can be done on Debian9.  However, /opt/intelFPGA_lite/17.0/quartus/linux64/quartus cannot be started due to no libpng12.so.0 found.  After hours of web search, I've found it can be downlaod .deb package for Ubuntu and it worked.

https://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/amd64/libpng12-0/download

Copy corrensponging linux source to /usr/src, then configure kernel.

After we have .config, then 

make modules_prepare

Don't forget

DE0-nano-SoC: CAN Netowrk should be disabled

Both:  CONFIG_GPIO_ALTERA=y

Debian install to Sodia board from Macnica

Create an SD Dard Image for Debian on Sidia Macnica

prerequisition

Build linux 4.4.52 kernel and debian 8 root file system based on this page.

Extract boot loader & u-boot from sodia image file

Our goal is to make a minimum debian system on Sodia board for fast data acquisition system development.  It can be re-used for boot process files by copy from RocketBoard.org provided file.

USB Driver permissions

Edit /etc/udev/rules.d/51-usbblaster.rules as following;

# Altera USB-Blaster for Quartus FPGA Software
ACTION=="add|change", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="09fb", ATTRS{idProduct}=="6010|6810",TAG+="uaccess"

Then run:

$ sudo udevadm control --reload

Execute jtagconfig

 $ jtagconfig
1) DE-SoC [3-1.1]
  4BA00477   SOCVHPS
  02D010DD   5CSE(BA4|MA4)/5CSXFC4C6

Trouble-shooting

Kill jtagd if already running, then run jtagd in debug mode

sudo apt-get install freeglut3-dev

Goto NVIDIA_CUDA-8.0_Samples directory, run make as following; 

GLPATH=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu make
