Not necessarily, it depends on how you have the system configured. If you are setup to boot off the uSD card, you do not ever need to program the FPGA, although you _can_ program the FPGA either from Linux at run-time, via u-boot, or via an external flash device. If you want u-Boot to program the FPGA, the rbf file typically resides in the FAT partition along with the kernel and device-tree files, but it can live elsewhere as well. -- Charles Steinkuehler char...@steinkuehler.net -- website: http://www.machinekit.io blog: http://blog.machinekit.io github: https://github.com/machinekit --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Machinekit" group.
