Accessing USB flash disk in zynq-linux on TE0720+TE0703

[indar]

So, is it possible to access an attached USB flash disk on the USB port of TE0703 directly using preloaded zynq-linux on QSPI? If yes, how? I don't see /dev/sd* from within the zynq-linux (so I cannot mount the USB flash disk using normal mount command). I looked at the reference design and it seems that the USB0 module in the zynq processing system has already been activated. Thanks!

best,
Indar

seems also OK.

Hello Antti,

Seems there's a problem with ours. The only information I got from the screen is this:

When I plug a USB flash disk (8GB, FAT32) in the USB slot, I don't see any update on the screen. Rebooting the system with/without USB flash disk attached in the slot produce the same info like above.
Can you give me hints of how to access USB flash disk like yours? Thanks!

best,
Indar

please contact support@..

TE0703 first batches we manufactured did not pass full production tests, so there may be a issue on the USB lines, there are small emi beads on the data lines, we have seen those emi chokes to have "no connect" inside even if they look soldered OK.
