The barebox-avnet-zedboard.img already is the BOOT.bin image, just copy
it to the SD card with this name and you are done.

Barebox currently doesn't support loading the FPGA bitstream. We are
still lacking a driver for the DevC PCAP interface. Zynq support in
Barebox is only a spare time (and thus toy) project at this time. It
works okay for booting Linux on the PS part of the system, but almost
fully lacks support for the PL part.

That said I wouldn't mind helping with getting the missing bits added
by reviewing/testing patches. :)

Hey Lucas,

thanks for your reply.

for some reason i had to comment out everything that is in arch/arm/boards/avnet-zedboard/zedboard.zynqcfg besides the last line

wm 32 0xffffffff 0x00000000

to get a working Bootloader.

https://www.xilinx.com/support/documentation/user_guides/ug585-Zynq-7000-TRM.pdf tells me that these values are suposed to be set by the BootROM and 0xffffffff signals the end of the list but unfortunatly the boot process hangs here when the unlock value is written. So i decided to leave this list empty.

Has anybody seen a similar behaviour?

Best regards
Michael
