Hi, Wang,I noticed that it looks like the "rootserver" IP address returned by DHCP is actually the same as the ROACH2’s IP address (192.168.100.1). I would have expected the "rootserver" IP address to be the same as "bootserver" (192.168.100.100).If you can connect the ROACH2 to the DHCP server dir

Hey Wang. It is a pleasure. Contributing to Michaels VM. I also have an Ubuntu VM that I run on a Macbook Pro that works well with a ROACH2. With my VM I don’t have to setup anything special, I just run my VM and it works. A few years back I was in the same predicament as you and learned my

Hi Wang, These VMs I've described are only important in generating gateware (*.fpg) files for each respective board, which require particular versions of Matlab/ISE/Vivado that may be incompatible with newer versions of Linux. The actual interaction with and operation of the board is carried ou

Hi Michael, Thank you very much. I'm new to this, and I have some questions. Is there any difference between using a VM to operate ROACH2 and installing an operating system on a host? When I have installed the VM. Do I need to set up some extra files to make ROACH2 work? What does your main op

Hi Wang, You might consider running Centos 6.X, Ubuntu, or Fedora as Virtual Machines within e.g. some other common Linux distro (with which your computer is compatible). This is what I'm currently doing: I have Rocky 8.6 as my main OS then Centos 6.10 in a VM for developing with roach2, and Ub

Hi Heystek, Thank you for your reply! Can you use ISE14.7 when using Ubuntu 18.04? I think the official website says this version is not supported. I was using Ubuntu 16.04 and had a problem with NFS mount on netboot. [image: nfs.webp] In terms of hardware, I consulted the after-sale technicia

Good day Wang. I use Ubuntu 18.04 LTS with Matlab 2012b with my ROACH2 and it is working fine. What are the problems that you are encountering with booting up? What are the hardware that you are running? Have a great day! Heystek - H
