Title: Erasing existing bootloader from SPI-Flash on ZynqBerry
Post by: kampi on November 29, 2020, 12:14:29 PM
Hello,

I try to erase the flash memory on my ZynqBerry with Vivado, because I want to use my own FSBL. For this, I open the hardware manager and use the configuration memory wizard with the following settings. But I got the following messages after starting the erase process:

connect_hw_server: Time (s): cpu = 00:00:01 ; elapsed = 00:00:06 . Memory (MB): peak = 2704.574 ; gain = 0.000

How can I fix this issue?

Hello, which Vivado Version did you use?

Depending on Vivado version and flash content, you must use different kind of FSBL:

https://wiki.trenz-electronic.de/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=105689937

--> a prebuilt version of  the special FSBL for QSPI programming is included into our reference designs:

PS: And use "s25fl128s-3.3v-qspi-x4-single", that's the correct one.

Hello,

thank you for your help. I use Vivado 2020.1.1 and your first link was helpful. After creating a new FSBL project and changing the boot mode to JTAG the flash memory is erasable.
