==========

This README file contains information on using the meta-zedboard BSP layer.

The ZedBoard is an evaluation board by Avnet/Digilent for the Zynq architecture:
	http://www.zedboard.org/

Please refer to the meta-xilinx/README for details regarding patch submission,
layer dependencies, build process, etc.

Supported Boards/Machines
=========================

Avnet/Digilent ZedBoard (Zynq) - 'zedboard'

Reference files and documents
=============================

For details on the Evaluation board:

For design files (including 'zynq_fsbl_0.elf') for the ZedBoard:

Additional information on Zynq architecture can be found at:

SD Card Boot
============

Note: This boot flow requires access to Xilinx tools (for BOOT.BIN generation).

Copy the following to the SD card (ensure to rename the files where appropriate):
	Kernel: uImage
	RootFS: uramdisk.image.gz (core-image-minimal-<machine name>.ext2.gz.u-boot)
	DTB:    devicetree.dtb (uImage-<machine name>.dtb)

Using the Xilinx tools, package 'zynq_fsbl_0.elf' and 'u-boot.elf' into a 
'BOOT.BIN' (See http://www.wiki.xilinx.com/Prepare+Boot+Image for details). Once
created copy 'BOOT.BIN' onto the SD Card.

Insert SD Card, connect UART to Terminal program and boot board (Ensure the
board is configured for SD Boot).
