Using the Prebuilt Linux Images
Extract the Archive
tar xvf 2020.3-<board>-release.tar.xz |
Preparing the SD card
By default, the prebuilt release images all use an initramfs based root filesystem. Therefore, only a single FAT32 boot partition is needed on the SD card. To prepare the card for use, copy BOOT.BIN, image.ub, and boot.scr from the archive to root directory of the boot partition.
To configure your SD card to support a second rootfs partition for future use, please see : http://www.wiki.xilinx.com/How+to+format+SD+card+for+SD+boot
Booting the Board
Set the boot mode DIP switches on your board to SD boot. You can refer to the following page to set the switches for each card: Board bring up using pre-built images
Login Credentials
Once Linux successfully boots, you can login with the following username and password:
