i was just gifted with an avnet zedboard with no SD card and, before i launch into trying to build my own boot images with YP, i'd like to copy some minimal pre-built files to an SD card and just make sure the board works. i've been trying that for the last couple hours and have had absolutely no luck, in the sense that, other than the power LED coming on, i've seen no sign that anything is happening with this board.
i don't even want to boot to linux -- i'm really just looking to get to u-boot -- with as little fuss as possible. i've connected my fedora box to the serial debug UART port, i've verified all the jumper settings, i've populated an SD card with the files extracted from zedboard_oob_design.zip as described here: http://zedboard.org/content/zedboard-out-box-sd-card-image-and-source i've fired up both minicom and picocom to connect to /dev/ttyACM0 ... no luck. i've run out of ideas, and i've tried all sorts of variations i've found all over the net. thoughts? getting to u-boot is all i'm after to confirm that this board actually functions. any suggestions? rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
