Hello,
I'm trying to get one of the tutorial 2 .bof files to work
nicely with its corresponding (or any) py file on my machine. Most
recently, I've really been trying to get tut2a.bof to work with tut2a.py.
After having to correct minor things in the py file (like making sure
that the python script was trying to communicate with registers that
actually existed in the design) I've hit a road block.
No matter what I do, I can not get tap-start() to run. The error that I
keep getting is below:
=========================================================
arccadmin@pestcontrol:~/Desktop/10gE_tut_FILES$ python2.7 tut2a.py
Connecting to server roach on port... ok
------------------------
Programming FPGA with tut2a.bof... ok

Traceback (most recent call last):

===========================================================
I've looked into upgrading borph...but as far as I can tell, I'm already
up to date with corr, tcpborphserver, and tgtap.
Any ideas? I've attached the .py file that I'm trying to run to this
email, though it's pretty much identical to the one I downloaded from
the tutorials online.
